When I worked with a place called "The Village" in Long Beach as a job coach and placement specialist, I placed several people with the job corps...it is actually a really good program for young persons...especially those with out a sense of direction.
Those needing to learn a more disciplined way to live their lives also benefit a great deal; the added bonus of helping in the community brings pride and changes in self confidence (in my experience) as well.
It may not be about finding a new career, as much as it is about finding yourself and building skills.
Best of luck!
