DSARP | DUI Screening Assessment and Referral Program

Brandywine Counseling & Community Services (BCCS) is proud to be a statewide provider of the DUI Screening Assessment and Referral Program (DSARP) – formerly the DUI Evaluation and Referral Program (DERP).

Every individual who is adjudicated in the State of Delaware for a DUI violation (or is otherwise under Delaware’s jurisdiction for a DUI offense) is screened by the DUI Screening Assessment and Referral Program at BCCS. Each court-ordered, DSARP-screened individual is then appropriately referred to either an education or treatment program.

Screenings take approximately 90 minutes to complete, and involves an interview with a trained screener. Within five (5) to ten (10) business days following the completion of your screening, DSARP participants receive a letter with a referral for placement (education or treatment).

DSARP is for individuals 18 years or older and who have been ordered for DSARP participation from either Delaware Courts or Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles. DUI offenders have ten (10) days from the date of their conviction to contact DSARP for screening. Failure to contact will result in a non-compliance discharge and additional fees. Individuals who have an out-of-state DUI but reside in Delaware will need to contact the DSARP Coordinator to discuss requirements from the issuing state.

Certain documents must be submitted at least 72 hours before your scheduled screening. If documents are not submitted at least 72 hours prior to your scheduled screening, your appointment will be canceled and there will be an additional missed appointment fee (see “DSARP Screening Fees” below).
