Substance abuse counseling for law enforcement?

Question by jrzer7: Substance abuse counseling for law enforcement?
I am a graduate student earning my M.S in mental health counseling. I want to be a substance abuse counselor for law enforcement. How do I go about doing this? When I google not many jobs pertaining to this come up, I assume because it is so specilized. Any tips would be appreciated.

Maybe you could contact some substance abuse centers and ask them how you would go about doing this. I know that they have substance abuse centers for health professionals (doctors, nurses, etc.), maybe you can contact one of them. I would think that substance abuse by police officers is a taboo subject, therefore the “blue wall of silence” is being put into action regarding this subject.
