Mike Link Driver Intervention Program

Lake Geauga Recovery Centers offers a 3-day Drive Intervention Program for first time DUI offenders called The Mike Link Driver Intervention Program. This program is an alternative to spending three days of incarceration for a DUI offense. Participants spend three days in a rustic setting with guest speakers, video's and lectures that enable them to take a well rounded look at all aspects of their DUI offense.

The program runs from Thursday evening at 5:00 p.m. till Sunday evening at 5:00 p.m. Participants gain information and insight on their judgment in driving situations as well as focusing on their own personal responsibility with drinking and driving.

Participants will be educated on a variety of subjects which include:

  • OBMV information
  • Interpretation of DUI law
  • Application of the DUI law
  • The disease process of addiction
  • Financial responsibility
  • Family Effects of their DUI
  • Alcohol and drug effects
  • Society's response to DUI laws
  • Medical aspects of addiction
  • Prevention
  • Personal responsibility
  • Good judgment and decision making

Cost is $295. We accept Medicaid.

Family Program

The Family Treatment Program offers family members and significant others an opportunity to learn the disease concept of codependency as it relates to the disease of addiction. Education and group activities are designed to promote insight into the negative emotional impact on both the user, and the family and significant others in the progression of addiction.

Group education and experiential opportunities are geared to enhance participants awareness and internalization of family disease concept and encourage involvement in a personal recovery process. Group focus will involve personal identification of "enabling" and controlling codependent behavior. Participants will develop skills for effective constructive personal and family recovery.

Interventions: An intervention will bring together family members, and others who are concerned about a loved ones alcohol and/or drug use. The goal is to bring to light and to break through the users denial of destructive behavior.

Because interventions can be a complicated and sensitive process, family members should not try it on their own. Contact the Lake-Geauga Center for professional help.
