Juvenile rehab record for Police Academy?
Question by Skittles: Juvenile rehab record for Police Academy?
I’m 23 and I’m preparing to enter the police academy. I haven’t applied yet but I have a question about the background check. When I was 14-15 I entered a rehabilitation clinic for minor drug use and also entered a mental health facility for depression (both voluntary). I was in the rehab for two weeks and the mental health facility for about a week. I haven’t had any problems since and have used no drugs since. Since it happened when I was a juvenile, will the police academy still be able to access those records and if they can will they hold it against me? I live in PA by the way. If they will hold it against me, is there anyway for me to fight that? I have never gotten in trouble with the police and have been clean since the rehab. Is there any way I can get those records erased?

There is a chance you will be rejected, your tender age at the time might be ok. Mental health issues may keep you from police work, or at least it should.
Answer by ricochet
In most states your juvi record is permanently sealed when your turn 18 or 21 depending on the state. The only thing that might hurt you is the mental thing. this may haunt you. Ask questions at the academy. Some one there should be able to help.

Have you tried to say something to the effect of “Look, this is getting bad. I can’t marry someone with these kinds of problems?” I don’t think you can force anyone into treatment, unless they’re suicidal. But maybe if you made it clear how you felt, he would consider getting help.
You can call 1-800-Suicide to talk to someone in your area about how you feel. They might be able to give you some tips on how to deal with your relationship.
You might want to consider therapy yourself. This can’t be easy to deal with.
Take care.
Answer by Cella
Lindsay,
If you mean treatment for alcohol, he will only go in if he is ready. You can try intervention. You can suggest rehab. A lot of rehabs have duel diagnosis. That means for depression and alcohol. The two go together most of the time anyway.
I went into rehab for drugs. Here’s what I learned. There is steps or a cycle that a person goes through. Now keep in mind that the depression and anxiety are because of the alcohol. The steps are: curiosity, addiction, admitting you have a problem, trying to rehab yourself, relapsing, asking for help, going into rehab and sometimes relapsing…
There are many places that can aid you in your search. First off you need to check out your insurance and see what they will cover. Some have a plan and a list of places they recommend. If not the state usually has place he can be put into. There might be a waiting list. So check out the your county or state programs.
Once you get him into a program make sure you have at least a one year plan. That means long term rehab(3-6 months is the best) then his after care. I believe that therapy and support are the best for after rehab. So find a therapist and a support program, like AA or something like that. At AA he would have a sponsor, someone who went through it and is there for him teaching and talking with him anytime he needs it.
While he is in rehab educate yourself, get into a support group yourself. Talk with other people who have gone through this. They can be there for you when things get tough or cheer you on when things go your way.
It is a tough road and I commend you on sticking with him through this. Just remember this can work out, although there may be some let downs. Remember the steps of recovery. They say relapes is part of recovery.
Feel free to email me anytime.
Take care and don’t give up!
