COURSE OVERVIEW

COURSE DESCRIPTION

This course helps those who drive under the influence of chemicals become more aware of the thinking errors that lead to that behavior.

ACCI’s experience with people who drive under the influence is that they are focused on self and have little regard for others. This group makes little effort to overcome their addictions and considers it their right to drive. This course offers a strong cognitive restructuring format that challenges the core reasoning, beliefs, and excuses that allow people to repeat and continue driving under the influence.

This self-directed cognitive restructuring course approaches the problem of driving under the influence from a different direction than the normal DUI class. It is especially effective as a self-directed home study program, completed with a coach of the participant’s choosing. Today’s DUI violators are not your local drunks, but sophisticated chemical abusers who require effective intervention.
