Community Intervention Associates is State Licensed facility providing court mandated DUI/DWI screening, education and treatment services for our clients who have been convicted of DUI's both within the State of Arizona.  Community Intervention Associates provides treatment not punishment. We want clients that have been refereed to us by the courts to have a positive experience with alcohol and drug treatment so that if there is a problem, they can break through any denial and take the steps necessary to begin a program of recovery. For many, the circumstances are not as dire; perhaps a poor decision or temporary lack of judgment may have lead them into the program. The goal is that should they, or someone they love, develop a problem in the future, they will be better equipped to understand and seek out further help. We believe strongly that the misery of treatment and the stigma attached to the disease of addiction can be removed. Many clients that have participated in our court mandated programs have made the decision not to use alcohol and drugs and were given the support and tools to continue a sober lifestyle. Community Intervention Associates provides a safe and structured environment in order to re-focus their lives in a more purposeful and intentional direction of their own design. Honesty, open-mindedness and willingness are the keys emphasized as the group sessions cover in depth the reality of what got us here, the role alcohol and other drugs has played in our lives up this point, where we want to go from here and how to get there.

  • How alcohol and other drugs affect a persons ability to operate a motor vehicle.
