What to do about out-patient rehab for a DUI if I have I have moved out of state?

I received a DWI and have to complete 4 months in a out-patient rehab center completing a class. I have moved to MO. Is there a way to transfer my class to one that is located here? How would I find that information out?

Ok so I am assuming that you are on some sort of probation here in the state of Arkansas, correct?  I have to say that it was probably not a good idea to move before you got the ok to do that.  Did you have an attorney on the case in Arkansas?  Then I would contact him or her and ask that an application be made to transfer the sentence to the state of Missouri and to allow you to complete the program there.  You need to submit documentation to the court that it is a comparable program and that you will be accepted to it upon application.  Get help here. Really. And quickly.
