Hello, can I attend a community college with a felony drug conviction? I want to earn a MSW so I can be a social worker, or counselor for drug addicts.?

Can you attend? Yes. I'm not aware (other than sex offenders) that someone with a felony conviction cannot enter a college (including community college) campus.
You have years to go, of course, to become get a MSW. I would be very sure you can get licensed in your State with a felony conviction.
Any professional license should be checked before you spend money on tuition.

Thanks for that advice. I hadn't thought of becoming liscencesd. I should call a place that I could actually speak with a drug counselor. Great idea! TY Wish me luck!
