For How Long Will I Have To Attend Alcohol Classes?

The alcohol classes typically mandated by the courts last twelve weeks. The court staff will evaluate you. If you have a significant problem with alcohol or drugs, you may be ordered to attend intensive treatment which could mean having to attend classes two or more times per week. As a term of your probation you will be required to pay for the classes. You will also be required to abstain from the use of alcohol and nonprescribed controlled substances for the term of the classes.
