Court Ordered Drug Rehabilitation

I know I should be good at this since I’m applying for a writer/copy editor internship, but it is so nerve racking knowing that I will be judged based on what I say and how I say it. The place I’m applying is an organization for urban renewal and redevelopment, which is something I am incredibly passionate about. I’m not studying urban politics because my school doesn’t offer this program, but I am invested to writing about these issues and I’m not exaggerating or trying to butter up the reader by speaking to these interests (though I’m afraid I may have gotten off-track since its for a writing position). I repeat myself a couple times, trying to figure out the best wording and construction. I really need help, and need to just get this out already. Thing is, I sound like an amateur in this letter, and I am, but I am driven and an enthusiastic student, I know I can do this well and improve given the chance. Here’s what I’m working with:

i have a family friend that has been in and out of rehab for cocaine and heroin and is now over 18… is there any way to get court ordered rehab for this person(texas)? she recently got a dui and is under 21. i know texas has a zero tolerance for that. will she be put on probation? or will the just take her license from her? i know for a fact that she would fail a drug test if she was put on probation. what can her family do… they tried once to put her in rehab after turning 18 but she checked out right way.

thanks in advance for any help you can lend.

I have a AAS degree in paralegal studies, but I have been working at a law firm for the past year and a half as a Records Manager. I have always been interested in applying for a position in the courts that require 2 yrs of paralegal or legal secretarial experience, but I don’t have that. I have done some work as a litigation paralegal at my current job before I became the Records Manager, but I don’t have extensive experience in the field. I still would like to apply for this other job, but I don’t know how to fix up my resume.

Also, where on the resume would I put that I am a Notary? I would guess there would be a section for certifications, but I am not sure.

I have a friend who died due to the adverse effects of heroin. For a time, I was just angry at drugs, angry at the people who were doing drugs. Don’t they know that they’re hurting their loved ones by doing that? But then I realized that my anger won’t do me any good at all. So now I have decided to help out. I would like to become an addiction counselor and I need to ask around at various rehabs about the requirement before I become one.

Children services have been called because an 11 year old is in the household. But this person is using drugs and refuses to get help. I think she’s bipolar but I don’t have the money to pay for rehab so I figured is there any way to get a court order for a state funded rehab program.
