Interlock Enhancement Counseling

Interlock Enhancement Counseling (IEC) is a new intervention for DUI/DWAI clients who have alcohol ignition interlocks on their vehicles. The program is 10 hours in length over 5 months. There are four two-hour group sessions, and four 30-minute individual sessions. The program begins with an individual session (separate intake may be needed) and is followed by a group the same month.

The program may be used in conjunction with Education and Treatment. For Level I, Level II Education, and Track A clients, IEC means 10 additional hours of care. For Tracks B-D, IEC may be counted toward the additional therapy hours required, if clinically appropriate. The IEC program may only begin when an interlock is installed on every vehicle available to the client. A major component of the program is the discussion of the individuals own performance on the interlock and the therapeutic process of changing the drinking and driving behavior while using an interlock as well as when the device is removed.
