This site does not recommend or endorse DBT because of its emphasis on philosophies derived from Buddhism and Eastern religion. However, some of the principles of DBT, less those of Eastern religions, can be of value. (In public schools there is a separation of religion and education. Some might consider DBT as teaching the practice of a form of religion, insomuch as Buddhist philosophies and meditation form a part of the treatment. Teaching religion on an academic level, however, is accepted in public schools). However, it has been noted, that DBT has been effective for many, more effective than standard treatments, probably in large part, because of the specific training of therapists, and the intensity, specific and regularity of the treatment schedule.

That site does give a good explanation of DBT though. But this is the main reason I shy away from DBT for myself, as I don't hold to those philosophies. It can help many who do, or don't "care".
