Georgia law requires anyone that has been charged with a DUI or other drug-related charges to complete a clinical evaluation (often called a “Drug and Alcohol evaluation” or a “substance abuse evaluation”) with a state-approved counselor. Each evaluation will last up to one hour.
We offer clinical evaluations on-site through Choice Counseling Centers. These can either be scheduled or completed over your lunch break during class if you request an evaluation in advance.
