Driving Under the Influence

The Department of Health Care Services (DHCS), Behavioral Health Licensing and Certification Division, Driving-Under-The-Influence (DUI) Section, licenses and performs compliance monitoring on all DUI programs in California. The objectives of the DUI program are to reduce the number of repeat DUI offenses by persons who complete a state-licensed DUI program; and to provide participants an opportunity to address problems related to the use of alcohol and/or other drugs. DHCS does not license internet DUI programs. DUI classes offered via the internet do not meet California's DUI Program requirements.


BHIN 24-012 Driving Under the Influence Services in Virtual Settings. This BHIN establishes requirements for the provision of virtual services in DUI programs pursuant to subdivision (e) of Section 11836 of the Health and Safety Code (HSC), as amended by Assembly Bill 118.
