SASSI also know as Alcohol Evaluation

Substance Abuse Evaluation (Alcohol Evaluation)

The SASSI-4 is a clinically developed screening tool used to help identify whether a person may have a substance use disorder or a high probability of substance dependence.

Unlike many questionnaires that simply ask direct questions like “Do you drink too much?” or “Do you use drugs often?”, the SASSI-4 is designed to detect substance dependency even when someone may minimize, deny, or not fully recognize the extent of a problem.

It combines:

Direct questions about alcohol and drug use
Indirect or “subtle” questions that measure attitudes, behaviors, defensiveness, and patterns commonly associated with substance misuse

The assessment is commonly used by:

  • Courts
  • Probation departments
  • DWI/DUI programs
  • Counselors and treatment providers
  • Employers in some settings

 

The SASSI-4 itself is not a diagnosis. It is a screening instrument that helps a licensed professional determine:

  • Whether further evaluation is recommended.
  • Whether education or treatment may be appropriate.
  • The likelihood of a substance use disorder

Going into this class, I honestly expected it to be something I just had to get through. Haley completely changed that expectation.
From the very beginning, she treated everyone with kindness, patience, and respect. She never made anyone feel judged or talked down to, and she created an environment where people felt comfortable being honest about difficult experiences. That isn’t easy to do, but she did it exceptionally well.
What stood out to me most was that Haley genuinely seemed to care about the people in her class. She listened, encouraged participation, and helped us reflect on our choices in a way that felt constructive instead of condemning. She has a calm, compassionate way of teaching that made even uncomfortable conversations feel worthwhile.
Thank you, Haley, for the time, energy, and heart you put into this class. You made a required course feel meaningful, and I truly appreciate the way you treated every person with dignity and understanding. I wish you nothing but success, and I hope you know the positive impact you’ve had on the people who have come through your classroom.

I was so intimidated taking these classes, I had a bad experience with the first company,lost my money no communication with them. But with Alamo center was a breeze very educational and the instructor was very helpful and insightful. Even the staff was there to help any of my log in attempts since I paid on the day of class starting , this lady was so helpful and made sure I got going with my class without missing it. I highly recommend Alamo Center for Drug offenses classes.

Honestly, Haley was excellent. She clearly knows the subject matter very well, and the fact that she has been through a similar situation herself gives her a unique perspective and sensitivity when teaching. She understands what we’re going through, which makes it much easier for us to relate to and understand the material. She’s also very intelligent, gets straight to the point, and keeps the class engaging and enjoyable, which helps everyone stay focused and involved.

Great instructor, but content needs serious improvement for any sort of impact. If this course has had demonstrable impact on reducing the instances of driving while intoxicated or under the influence, it would have much more impact if filmed and cited in this decade.
