Charge on record

When I was 21 I went out to a club and asked my friend who was 20 to pick me up in my car. They had not been drinking but they had some friends with them who were also 20 and had been drinking. We got pulled over and a bottle of vodka was found in the trunk of the car. This led to me having ‘furnishing alcohol to a minor’ on my record.

I am now mid 30s and started nursing school last year and at the time I spoke with someone who stated that this being on my record should not be an issue when getting licensed as a nurse. I have now reached the point where I am able to apply to be a CNA. The paperwork is asking about any charges on my records and is requesting information and a letter of explanation.

I am now spiraling about setting myself up for failure even completing nursing school if this is something that will lead to not being licensed.

Has anyone had a similar situation? Is there anything I can do in this situation? Will this prevent me from being licensed in the future?

Thank you.
