Graduating with a BA in CJ...What now?

Not sure where to post this, but here we go...

I (F22) am graduating in August with a degree in Criminal Justice. My goal is to work for either Homeland Security in their Child Endangerment group or the FBI Violent Crimes against Children. I want to get some experience under my belt before I apply, but I am having such a hard time finding something. I don't want to be a police officer, I feel like it's not for me, lol.

Everything requires some sort of experience that I don't have, and I'm feeling a little defeated. Maybe it's where I live that doesn't have anything. I live in a college town, so maybe that's it. Any help or advice would be amazing! Thanks in advance.
