ARE YOU REQUIRED TO GET AN ALCOHOL & DRUG ASSESSMENT?
IMPACT is the largest provider of alcohol and drug screening, assessment and referral services in Wisconsin. We offer:
- Operating while intoxicated [OWI] assessments
- Other court-ordered assessments
- Professional licensing boards assessments
- Substance abuse professional [SAP] evaluations
What to Expect
As part of the Intoxicated Driver Program (IDP), IMPACT counselors conduct a conversational interview based on a series of questions regarding drinking, drug use, and related issues. Your counselor will discuss the results of the assessment with you and, based on the findings, recommend a course of action which may include education or treatment.
Schedule an Appointment
Appointments are scheduled Mondays from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and Tuesday through Friday between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Fees vary based on the type of assessment needed. Call 414-443-6000 to schedule an appointment.
Help and hope for you or a loved one
For more than 60 years, IMPACT has provided free and confidential alcohol and drug consultation and referral services to help people who are concerned about themselves or a loved one. Because IMPACT does not provide treatment services, and is not affiliated with any healthcare provider, referrals are based solely on the needs of the individual. If you are wondering how to stop drinking or using drugs, IMPACT can help.
98% of IMPACT clients report a better understanding of available resources for help, and 72% say that the quality of their lives has improved.
