text: i have 2 teaching certificates and a m.a.. i originally pursued this so .........? ......that i could work in a residential drug treatment center, but now they do not exist (long term).  are there any other jobs rather than in a classroom?  i have sped and  elementary???? you could work in a facility for juvenile offenders in residential programs. i think it would still require classroom, though, but perhaps not always.  also, look at hospitals.  many students are hospitalized for lenghty periods, but are able to receive instruction while getting medical care.
