The Justice Challenge

In today's society the court system is being challenged to find new alternatives to incarceration for individuals identified with chemical dependency problems. With the advent of "Drug Court" in many communities, those with alcohol or drug related offenses are being directed to seek treatment for their problem. Probation and parole officers are directing offenders into treatment programs. In some cases, these individuals find it difficult to pay for or attend treatment due to financial problems, conflicts with work or difficult family situations.

The eGetgoing Solution

eGetgoing offers attorneys, judges, probation and parole officers a resource to help the offender access excellent chemical dependency treatment utilizing advanced Internet technology. The eGetgoing solution overcomes barriers to treatment by making treatment available almost immediately for a limited cost. It is accessible from a client's home, workplace or away from home at conveniently scheduled times that won't compete with family or work time. Our clients interact through a screen name that also allows them to remain completely anonymous to their peer group and that also improves their ability to speak honestly about their addictions.

We offer a seamless integration between online treatment and traditional programs. eGetgoing counselors and clients interact as in any traditional group session with:
  • 95% of group time spent in discussion.
  • Small groups of 8-10 clients.
  • Clients viewing their counselor during the group sessions.
  • Two-way audio conversations in real time.
  • Videos bring the core issues into focus.
  • Frequent assessments graphed twice a week on the client's personal home page.
  • Utilization of specialized visual aids such as slides and diagrams.
  • Each group session focused on specific recovery issues.
  • Homework assignments individualized to the clients needs.
In addition, our clients have their own home pages, private emails and journaling capabilities within our site. They also have one hour of individual counseling by phone with their counselor.

For many individuals, eGetgoing offers the convenient, private and affordable solution needed. We also offer post-treatment quality aftercare at no charge for one year, that includes extended follow-up tracking and relapse prevention components. This aftercare provides clients with continued support in their recovery and provides court officers with regular updates regarding offenders' progress.
