Program Overview

Health Connections offers the 3 day (72-Hour) Driver Intervention Program (DIP). DIP is a weekend education curriculum designed to recognize thinking errors and facilitate a change in behaviors for individuals who have been charged with a first time OVI (Operating a Vehicle Impaired) in the State of Ohio.


The courts may offer the DIP as an alternative to the mandatory three-day jail sanction for this charge. Participants remain at the location for the entire three days, beginning Thursday evening at 6 p.m. to Sunday evening at 6 p.m.

Upon completion, the referring court is informed within two days.
