Working Farm or Labor intensive Drug rehab?

Hello,

I'm a new poster but I'm desperate to get some advice. I'm looking to find a rehab appropriate for my cousin, who is a heroin addict who has relapsed multiple times.

He is an EXTREMLY spoiled 30 year old who comes from a very wealthy family. He has never in his life held down a job for more than a couple weeks, even when he's sober. I don't think sending him to another traditional rehab will do him much good.

What I'm looking for is a place where he will have to do serious manual labor. Maybe a working farm or something of that sort. Somewhere where he has support for the addiction, but begins to understand the concept of work ethic and what it takes to be a productive member of society.

Any help would be tremendously appreciated.
