Hello all,

My name is Michael and I am 26 years young. When I was 17 (Senior) I moved to Michigan and began to date a 15 year old (Sophomore). Her guardians found out and pressed charges.
I plead out to a Felonious Assault, right before I got off the 5 year probation. Stupid me, I decided to get drunk and key two cop cars. .

So my two charges as appear on MDOC corrections website states:
-Malicious Destruction of Fire or Police Property - Offense date 2006
-Assault with Dangerous Weapon (Felonious Assault) - Offense date 2003

I was going to be a substance abuse counselor, but the way this economy is shifting I'm really needing some other options to help further my career horizon.
I'm scared because I've been looking for work for over 6 months actively, to no avail have I found anything.

Does anyone know of a career path, besides construction, that can help support a family with my charges?

Thank you for taking time to read this.
Best Wishes to all felons who are having a hard time,
One day things will change. Just keep your head up :)

Sincerely,
Michael
