Best Answer:
You can become a school counselor or do hospital social work. There are other non profit organizations that you could work for like Catholic Charities, Women's Shelters, etc. You can also work for a Juvenile Delinquency center or become a probation officer. You could always work for DCFS for a little bit, but if you don't want to do any of these then talk with your academic adviser about what it is that you want to do. They should be able to give you some ideas.

Get some experience working as a teacher's aide, for Pre-k or Kindergarten, this will help you in your career change.
