Offender-Based Intervention (OBI)
Alcohol and/or other drug abuse sometimes results in legal problems. The Offender-Based Intervention Program is a substance abuse education and treatment program designed for individuals referred through the South Carolina Department of Probation, Pardon and Parole Services or other criminal justice referring agencies. Community referrals are available based on individual need. Call (803) 252-3727.
The client must successfully complete the recommended services in order to fulfill his or her obligations. The referring agencies are notified of the participants' progress and participation. The goals of the OBI program are to help individuals reduce the risk of re-offending and to promote positive lifestyle changes by addressing the individual's attitude, thinking and behavior as it relates to substance abuse and criminal activity. Responsibility and accountability of one's actions are re-enforced through group facilitation.
To enroll in the OBI program, please call (803) 252-3727 to schedule an orientation appointment. At this appointment you must provide proof of address and pay a $65 fee to cover the initial assessment service.
