U MADAOP Mansfield offers a vital service in the form of Driver Intervention Programs (DIP), certified by the Ohio Department of Alcohol & Drug Addiction Services (ODADAS) to conduct three comprehensive programs. Among these is the 72 Hour Program, a residential initiative that serves as an alternative to incarceration for first-time offenders, repeat offenders, and individuals in need of intervention. Participants are accommodated at a local motel, provided with meals, engage in small group discussions, attend presentations, and watch educational DVDs focused on instigating behavioral changes essential for preventing further offenses. In addition to the residential 72 Hour Program, UMADAOP Mansfield also facilitates a 22-hour non-residential DIP held at the UMADAOP office. Both programs adhere to the state screening, education, and small group discussion standards, ensuring participants receive a structured and informative experience designed to address behaviors related to impaired driving and prevent recidivism effectively. The professional and credentialed staff at UMADAOP Mansfield are dedicated to delivering high- quality interventions and support to individuals participating in the DIP, guiding them towards positive behavioral changes and responsible decision-making behind the wheel. By offering these Driver Intervention Programs, UMADAOP Mansfield plays a crucial role in promoting road safety, providing educational resources, and fostering awareness about the impact of impaired driving. Through a combination of residential and non-residential programs, UMADAOP Mansfield aims to equip participants with the knowledge, skills, and support needed to make informed choices, embrace behavioral changes, and ultimately contribute to safer roadways and healthier communities.
