<p><strong>ABOUT DUI AND ADDICTION COUNSELING CENTER</strong></p> <p>Located in Mundelein, Ill., about 40 miles north of Chicago, the DUI and Addiction Counseling Center (DACC) provides <strong>outpatient substance abuse services for adults and teens</strong> as well as <strong>specialized DUI programs</strong>. DACC was founded in 2008 to serve Lake County and its surrounding areas.</p> <p>DACC does not offer residential treatment, but clients requiring more intensive treatment can receive referrals for a nearby appropriate program. Services are also provided in <strong>American Sign Language</strong> for the hearing impaired.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>DACC subscribes to the disease model of addiction; treatment modalities include <strong>individual and group therapy, network therapy</strong>, relapse prevention work, and referrals to other healthcare providers and mental health professionals. <strong>Families are encouraged to attend treatment</strong>, though additional details on family programs are not available. In many cases, treatment aims to foster growth through behavioral changes, life-skill acquisition, spirituality, and coping skills. <strong>Increasing self-esteem is another major goal of treatment</strong>.</p> <p><strong>At the highest level of care available, DACC’s intensive outpatient (IOP) sessions</strong> meet three times a week, for a total of eight weeks. Programming is split into two tracks: there is <strong>one for teens, another for adults</strong>. Aftercare is provided for an additional year after program completion. Ideal for students in junior high through college, an <strong>early intervention program</strong> focuses primarily on education and personal development. It meets weekly for four weeks.</p> <p>In the DUI program, all court-ordered clients undergo an evaluation to determine level of risk and type of treatment required. Following their assessment, <strong>clients work with their assigned counselors to address their alcohol problem and prevent further DUIs</strong>. Other services at DACC include <strong>drug testing, non-DUI evaluations</strong> (e.g. for possession or public intoxication), and faith-based groups.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>Treatment staff include <strong>two certified addiction counselors</strong>. Per the facility’s website, doctors and other mental health professionals help form treatment plans, though these specialists do not appear to be a part of the full-time staff.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>Rehabs.com has yet to receive any reviews from this facility’s alumni, though <strong>secondary sites yielded excellent feedback</strong>. On YellowPages.com, for example, a reviewer identifying themselves as yellowuser88 wrote: “Great place to do treatment. Warm, safe, and friendly. Counselor is great, doesn't judge you. Learned an incredible amount about my problems and about me. Highly recommended.”<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small></p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>The single loved one surveyed by Rehabs.com to date also shared details of a positive recovery experience. This anonymous reviewer gave four or five-star ratings in more than a dozen categories except one - family participation, for which they gave three stars. “It was a great experience,” they told Rehabs.com. “The person who received the treatment has been sober ever since.”</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>Per DACC’s website, <strong>insurance is accepted</strong>, but only on a reimbursement basis and when enrollment is not court-mandated.</p> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.yellowpages.com/mundelein-il/mip/dui-addiction-counseling-center-of-lake-county-15841177" target="_blank">https://www.yellowpages.com/mundelein-il/mip/dui-addiction-counseling-center-of-lake-county-15841177</a></small></p>
