The IOP program is a 6 week program, requiring that you attend 6 hours of group counseling or 2 days per week for 6 weeks, a total of 12 days. You have a 7-week window to complete the 12 days of the program. You’re permitted to miss up to 2 days; beyond this, for each additional missed day, an extra day of attendance and payment is required.
