Alcohol Intervention training

Drug & Alcohol Interventionist.?

This is what I want to be when I get older.
Drug & Alcohol addiction has always interested me & I want to pursue a career in it.
While watching “Intervention” on A&E, I thought about becoming a Drug and Alcohol Interventionist.
Is this a good job choice?
Are there colleges that offer training in this in New York?
Are there job openings?
How many years of college do I have to go to?
Also, What other jobs are there involving Drug & Alcohol Control/Help?

Thank you. (:

I am an addiction counselor and I love it. Its a long process but if you have a passion for it you will go for it.
In California we have a licence called CAADAC you go through school, intern for 340 hours go for state board exam. work 4000 hours and go for your oral exam. Its not that bad if you work in a rehab while going through school.

Clifford L. Miller Jr.’s life, it would seem, was marked by instability. From the time he started in the Alachua County school system in 1990, Miller attended 10 different schools and served a few stints in juvenile detention before finishing his academic career without a diploma.
