About D and A Assessment Services Inc

D&A Assessment Services is a state-licensed provider in Wilmington, North Carolina, offering substance use assessments, alcohol and drug education, and outpatient treatment for people facing DWI and other alcohol- or drug-related charges. They work with anyone charged with DWI or DUI, underage drinking or driving after drinking under 21, or marijuana or other drug possession, including people with charges from another state. A DWI assessment is required in North Carolina to receive a Limited Driving Privilege, and their aim is to recommend the least restrictive services that still meet legal requirements. Night and weekend appointments and walk-ins make it easier to complete the process without missing work.

After the assessment, clients are referred to the level of care their results and state guidelines call for. First-time offenders who don’t meet criteria for treatment may complete ADETS, a 16-hour education program covering substance use, impaired driving laws, and ways to avoid driving impaired in the future. Short-term outpatient groups focus on education, insight, and practical skill-building, while long-term outpatient treatment offers extended structure centered on accountability and long-term planning. Both outpatient tracks meet several times a week with morning and evening options, and staff walk each client through what is required, how long it will take, and how to finish each step toward license restoration.
