Positive Pathways offers Substance Use Assessments that may be voluntary, court-ordered or requested by employers.

Positive Pathways provides professional drug and alcohol assessments over video meeting and in person. A drug and alcohol assessment is often required when a prescription medication, illegal drug or alcohol are part of the following:

• A DUI/DWI arrest

• Other Court related charges such as: drug possession/paraphernalia, domestic violence, trespassing while under the influence.

• A request by a physician who may have concerns about abuse of a prescription medication.

• If you or someone close to you has a concern about your use of alcohol and/or drugs.

First, you will complete an online questionnaire. Next, you will meet with one of our professionals via video meeting or in-person for a 60-90 minute interview. 

The goal of the evaluation is to provide recommendations to the individual or court, and any necessary follow-up care for the individual. It is important to note that these evaluations are not intended to determine guilt or innocence in a legal sense, but rather to inform future actions and recommendations for appropriate level or care, if needed.

This assessment can be completed on any weekday through video meeting or in-person. Assessments are available by appointment only. The standard turn-around time for a Substance Use Assessment is 3-5 business days. If you are in need of the evaluation paperwork the same-day, the evaluation is subject to a $50 rush fee. A rushed evaluation can only be completed if all required documentation is brought to the appointment

What to Bring
