Free Substance Use Screening Tool
Take the screening
Answer 10 quick questions to get a simple risk snapshot. This tool is for general information. It is not a diagnosis, treatment, or legal advice.
Before you start: This self-screening is for education only. It does not replace a full drug and alcohol evaluation by a clinician. If you need paperwork for court, probation, the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), an employer, or the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), you will need a formal evaluation.
If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, call or text 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, or dial 911.
Important: This screening does not provide a medical or psychiatric diagnosis and is not treatment or legal advice. To meet legal, work, or DOT Return-to-Duty (RTD) needs, a licensed clinician or DOT-qualified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) must complete a formal evaluation and recommendations.
