DUI/CRN Evaluations

Under Title 75, Section 3802 of the Pennsylvania Vehicle Code, any individual arrested for operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance is required to complete a CRN evaluation. DUI offenders arrested in Berks County must complete this evaluation at TASC. In 2015, TASC conducted 1199 CRN evaluations.

The CRN, or Court Reporting Network, evaluation is a computer assisted, self-reporting questionnaire that provides a comprehensive and uniform alcohol and other drug assessment of each DUI offender. Comprised of 100 questions, the CRN evaluation can be completed in approximately 40 minutes. At the conclusion of the evaluation, each offender is issued a computerized summary of the results and recommendations as determined by the CRN.

For offenders who are required to complete a comprehensive drug and alcohol assessment, TASC provides a list of DDAP licensed treatment providers who offer this service. Individuals who do not have private health insurance, or who have publicly funded health insurance (i.e. Medicaid), will be referred to the TASC Central Intake Unit to complete the comprehensive drug and alcohol assessment.
