HOW TO COMBAT BIAS?
Collecting Data
Does your program adequately represent your community?
Focus on the facts
Base decisions on Risk/Need Level and Eligibility criteria – not if you think they will be successful
![Page 10: Moving Targets: Critical Considerations for DWI Court ... · DWI Court Population Presented by: Julie Seitz, LADC, LSW Clinical Director, Center for Alcohol & Drug Treatment Shane](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071211/6023297b78c7760b13610d27/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
STRENGTH BASED
APPROACH
Recognize tools client has:
• Tools that are pro-social/anti-social
• How the client has survived
• What is their reality
![Page 11: Moving Targets: Critical Considerations for DWI Court ... · DWI Court Population Presented by: Julie Seitz, LADC, LSW Clinical Director, Center for Alcohol & Drug Treatment Shane](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071211/6023297b78c7760b13610d27/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
REPROGRAMMING OUR BRAINS
Program expectations realistic?
Do we set our clients up for success?
Do we take advantage of teachable moments?
Do we live in black and white?
![Page 12: Moving Targets: Critical Considerations for DWI Court ... · DWI Court Population Presented by: Julie Seitz, LADC, LSW Clinical Director, Center for Alcohol & Drug Treatment Shane](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071211/6023297b78c7760b13610d27/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
WHO ARE
OUR CLIENTS?What is their home life like?
What adversities do they face on a daily basis?
Is there generational mistrust of criminal justice system?
Is there a history of being “pushed through the system”?
![Page 13: Moving Targets: Critical Considerations for DWI Court ... · DWI Court Population Presented by: Julie Seitz, LADC, LSW Clinical Director, Center for Alcohol & Drug Treatment Shane](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071211/6023297b78c7760b13610d27/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
EMPOWER
THE CLIENT
Use Motivational Interviewing and Strength Based case management strategies
Look for teachable moments and alternatives to sanctioning
Recognize High Risk/High Need clients have baggage but
research shows they do the best in these programs
![Page 14: Moving Targets: Critical Considerations for DWI Court ... · DWI Court Population Presented by: Julie Seitz, LADC, LSW Clinical Director, Center for Alcohol & Drug Treatment Shane](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071211/6023297b78c7760b13610d27/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Psychiatric comorbidity is
not only highly prevalent
in repeat DWI offender
populations but also a
significant risk factor for
criminal behavior

![Page 15: Moving Targets: Critical Considerations for DWI Court ... · DWI Court Population Presented by: Julie Seitz, LADC, LSW Clinical Director, Center for Alcohol & Drug Treatment Shane](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071211/6023297b78c7760b13610d27/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
PSYCHIATRIC COMORBIDITY
AMONG FIRST-TIME AND
REPEAT DUI OFFENDERS
Repeat DUI offenders screened positive in their lifetime for an
average of 6.2 disorders, whereas first-time offenders screened positive
for an average of 3.6 disorders
Psychiatric comorbidity is severe and pervasive among repeat DUI offenders
compared to first-time offenders
Symptoms of anxiety disorders appear to be highly prevalent in both DUI offender populations compared
to the general population
![Page 16: Moving Targets: Critical Considerations for DWI Court ... · DWI Court Population Presented by: Julie Seitz, LADC, LSW Clinical Director, Center for Alcohol & Drug Treatment Shane](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071211/6023297b78c7760b13610d27/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
COMPUTERIZED ASSESSMENT AND
REFERRAL SYSTEM (CARS)www.carstrainingcenter.org
Research has found that 45% of repeat drunk drivers have a major mental health disorder in addition
to substance use disorder
45%
DUI offenders who suffer from psychiatric disorders other than
alcohol or use disorders re-offend more, and more quickly than others
Screening for mental health issues beyond alcohol use disorders is rare
within DUI treatment programs
![Page 17: Moving Targets: Critical Considerations for DWI Court ... · DWI Court Population Presented by: Julie Seitz, LADC, LSW Clinical Director, Center for Alcohol & Drug Treatment Shane](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071211/6023297b78c7760b13610d27/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Over two-thirds of people seeking treatment for substance use
disorder report one or more traumatic
life events(Back et al., 2000)
Trauma
![Page 18: Moving Targets: Critical Considerations for DWI Court ... · DWI Court Population Presented by: Julie Seitz, LADC, LSW Clinical Director, Center for Alcohol & Drug Treatment Shane](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071211/6023297b78c7760b13610d27/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Trauma is when our ability to cope in everyday ways is overwhelmed.
The traumatic event does not define a trauma reaction. It is our perception of the event, our past
experiences, our past coping patterns, and our present resources and ability to cope that determine
the outcome.
What is Trauma?

Trauma Pathway
• Sensory stimulus triggers
• Hypothalamus which releases
• Corticotropin releasing factor which stimulates
• Pituitary which releases
• Adrenocorticotropin hormone which stimulates
• Adrenals which release
• Cortisol which regulates
• Stress responses and immune functioning

ANATOMY OF FEAR
Within seconds of perceiving a threat, the primitive amygdala sounds a general alarm. The adrenal system promptly floods the body with adrenaline and stress hormones. Nonessential physiological processes switch off. Digestion stops, skin chills, and blood is diverted into muscles in preparation for a burst of emergency action. Breathing quickens, the heart races, and blood pressure skyrockets, infusing the body with oxygen while the liver releases glucose for quick fuel. The entire body is suddenly in a state of high alert, ready for fights or flight.-J.S.
