What are criminal justice jobs that do not do psychological background checks?

I am a criminal justice major and have had mental health problems so becoming a cop is pretty slim but what other jobs might I be able to do in the field with a 2 or 4 year degree?

Most jobs within criminal justice do psychological background checks. That would include police officer, probation and parole, even any job within a police dept, like working for 911 dispatch. Private security may not, but then you would have to be UNARMED (due to the psychological background done for weapons permits). Private investigations? Bail Bondsmen maybe?

They ALL do psych testing and backgrounds. From cops to dispatcher to Probation and Parole to the jails and prisons. Sorry.
