What Is an Alcohol and Drug Evaluation?

A certified evaluator conducts a structured clinical assessment of your relationship with alcohol and controlled substances. Using validated screening tools, a personal interview, and relevant background documentation. The evaluator determines the level of risk your substance use presents and recommends the appropriate level of education, counseling, or treatment.

Your alcohol and drug evaluation report becomes a critical document in your legal and licensing process. Judges reference it during sentencing. The DDS reviews it before reinstating a suspended license. Licensing boards examine it before ruling on professional license matters.
