Abstract
A Massachusetts affiliate of the faith-based addiction treatment organization Adult & Teen Challenge is being ordered to pay restitution to hundreds of treatment clients who performed fundraising work and manual labor for the provider without compensation. The citations against Adult & Teen Challenge, Northeast were based largely on a determination from state labor regulators that activities such as office cleaning, snow shoveling and telephone fundraising for program participants were not rehabilitative in nature and therefore were subject to minimum wage requirements.
基于信仰的成瘾治疗组织“成人与青少年挑战”（Adult & Teen Challenge）在马萨诸塞州的一个分支机构被要求向数百名治疗客户支付赔偿金，这些客户为该机构做了筹款工作和体力劳动，却没有得到补偿。对东北地区“成人和青少年挑战”的处罚主要是基于州劳动监管机构的决定，即办公室清洁、铲雪和为项目参与者进行电话筹款等活动在本质上不属于康复性质，因此受到最低工资要求的约束。
