James L. Arrasmith · Answer

In Arizona, a probationer can work as a substance abuse counselor under specific conditions, as outlined in Arizona Revised Statutes § 13-901.01. This statute provides an exception for probationers to work in the field of substance abuse counseling, particularly when their own experiences can be valuable in helping others. However, the law requires that the probationer be under the appropriate supervision of a licensed professional to ensure that the probationer’s background and current legal status do not interfere with the treatment process or the safety of the clients. 
 
You may be going through a challenging time, and finding work that allows you to help others can be a meaningful way to move forward. It's important to remember that even with this exception, careful consideration is given to ensure that all participants in the counseling process are safe and that the treatment environment remains professional and effective. 
 
If you’re considering this path, it's wise to consult with a legal advisor or probation officer to ensure you meet all the requirements and to discuss how your background can be appropriately managed in a professional setting. This could be an opportunity to turn your experiences into a positive force for others.
