   :: SECTION 23520-23521

 

23520.  (a) Whenever, in any county specified in subdivision (b), a
judge of a juvenile court, a juvenile traffic hearing officer, or
referee of a juvenile court finds that a person has committed a first
violation of Section 23152 or 23153, the person shall be required to
participate in and successfully complete an alcohol or drug
education program, or both of those programs, as designated by the
court.  The expense of the person's attendance in the program shall
be paid by the person's parents or guardian so long as the person is
under the age of 18 years, and shall be paid by the person
thereafter.  However, in approving the program, each county shall
require the program to provide for the payment of the fee for the
program in installments by any person who cannot afford to pay the
full fee at the commencement of the program and shall require the
program to provide for the waiver of the fee for any person who is
indigent, as determined by criteria for indigency established by the
board of supervisors.  Whenever it can be done without substantial
additional cost, each county shall require that the program be
provided for juveniles at a separate location from, or at a different
time of day than, alcohol and drug education programs for adults.
   (b) This section applies only in those counties that have one or
more alcohol or drug education programs certified by the county
alcohol program administrator and approved by the board of
supervisors.
