About Middlesex DUIL – Tewksbury
Middlesex DUIL is part of Middlesex Human Service Agency in Tewksbury, Massachusetts. They offer a 14 day driving under the influence of liquor program. This program is mandated by the court system and provides residential treatment services for men and women who have a second offense for driving under the influence. It’s provided to individuals as an alternative to incarceration.
During your time in treatment, counselors will help you understand your relationship with substance use so you can avoid experiencing problems with it in the future. Your daily routine between 6:30 am and 10:30 pm will include group and individual counseling, classes and referral sessions.
Clients will also be required to attend self help meetings such as NA or AA groups. You’ll be served cafeteria style meals three times a day and will also be able to enjoy a snack before bedtime.
In between your treatment sessions, you’ll get time to enjoy recreational activities to relieve your stress and have fun. Some of the activities you can do include board games, badminton, craft projects and group walks.
You may find that you really enjoy these activities to the point that you find places in town where you can do them after you’re no longer undergoing residential treatment. A few places near Tewksbury you can go for a nice walk include the Harold Parker State Forest and Lowell Dracut Tyngsborough State Forest. The facility also has exercise equipment, such as exercise bikes and weight machines, that you can use for workouts.
