The CIP, or Community Impact Panel, is used for persons convicted of DWI, DWAI-Drugs and Criminal Possession of Controlled Substances to educate on the science of substance use disorder and genetic pre-disposition, real life testimony of unintended consequences of operating a vehicle while impaired or intoxicated and the availability for treatment locally for substance use disorder. The majority of attendees were arrested for DWAI-Drugs and attend as part of the plea agreement. Presenters at each session are the District Attorney, Sheriff and a CASAC from Steuben County SCASAS (addiction treatment counselor).
New York’s STOP-DWI program is the Nations’ first and, to date, only self-sustaining impaired driving program. Other States have implemented components of self-sufficiency, but none to the degree of New York State.
