Look for your local vocational rehabilitation office, which is usually within the state employment office. They have programs to help recovering addicts get job training and placement. The easiest thing to do is apply for a job like anyone else. A recovering addict is just like anyone else, just don't apply for jobs that are known to have employees that are active addicts in the work staff.
