Adult Probation Services
Specialized DUI Unit
The Specialized DUI Unit began in 1986 with a grant from the Administrative Office of the Illinois Courts. This program not only identifies and monitors offenders, but offers intervention techniques and treatment referrals. A case can be assigned to a specialized officer based on an offender’s prior arrest history and the results of an evaluation by a licensed agent or agency, with violators being promptly referred back to the Court. High risk DUI cases are also referred to Probation Field Supervision Unit to closely monitor sobriety and compliance with court orders. Nine (9) probation officers supervise DUI offenders at this time.
