Question by Nacole: best college degrees to open drug rehab?
I have dreamed of opening a drug rehab for years. Half of my family and an ex are drug addicts, and it disgusts me how some rehabs are like spas and don’t actually teach them how to survive with their addiction and not use. (For the sake of getting to my point I will leave it at that) I am about to start my sophomore year in college and am trying to figure out the education I need to open my own drug rehabilitation center. Part of my demands it be nonprofit, but I will have to see which is ultimately best. I know I need business knowledge and addiction related knowledge. What I have come up with is majoring in sociology and minoring in psychology. Both only taking classes related to deviance, criminology , abnormal behavior, stuff like that. And take any prerequisites for business and then get masters in business administration (MBA).
Does this sound good? Would another route be better, if so what degrees? I would love if I could just go from a bachelors, but I don’t know. Any suggestions would be great, thanks. Please only serious answers. Thanks in advance for all your help.    Read more...
