The Working Group on DWI System Improvements
In 2004, Traffic Injury Research Foundation (TIRF) formed a Working Group on DWI System Improvements, a prestigious coalition of senior leaders of organizations representing frontline professionals in all segments of the criminal DWI system (law enforcement, prosecution, judiciary, supervision, and treatment).
The efforts of the Working Group on DWI System Improvements, with funding provided by Anheuser-Busch, have served to identify critical system needs, to make needed educational materials available, to articulate the complex issues associated with program and policy implementation embedded within broader systems, and to give voice to the concerns of practitioners in the DWI system and identify achievable solutions. A series of education resources are available to support the training efforts for agencies that work with DWI offenders.
