Impaired Driver Assessment
An impaired driver assessment is a thorough evaluation mandated in some circumstances by the New York State DMV, the courts, or other authorities. Its goal is to assess whether further treatment or intervention is necessary and to ensure the offender is matched with the most appropriate support.
At Cuda Counseling, our licensed professionals conduct these evaluations to provide clear, reliable guidance for both legal compliance and behavioral intervention.
