Purpose of an Alcohol and Drug Evaluation in Georgia
A drug and alcohol evaluation is a method to determine if someone has recently used drugs or alcohol and to identify if they might have an issue with substance abuse. The main goal of an Alcohol and Drug Evaluation in Georgia, also known as a Substance Abuse Evaluation for non-DUI clients, is to thoroughly assess an individual’s symptoms to determine if they have an addictive disease or a co-occurring psychiatric disorder. These evaluations are often mandated by the court or recommended by a criminal defense attorney or probation officer in cases involving alcohol or drug-related offenses. Typical situations that necessitate such evaluations include charges of public intoxication, prostitution, reckless driving, disorderly conduct, possession of controlled substances, or DFCS referrals, where parents are assessed to see if substance abuse is affecting their ability to provide adequate care for their children.
