40 Hours a Week for $1? The Truth About Salvation Army ‘Work Therapy’

This Week : The Salvation Army Exposed: Forced Labor & Secret Settlements

Week Three: Charity or Exploitation? The Truth About The Salvation Army

Week Four: How The Salvation Army Got Sued for $1.87 Million – and It’s Just Beginning

The Salvation Army — one of America's most trusted charities — is now facing multiple federal lawsuits.
From forced labor allegations to millions paid in secret settlements, this investigation reveals the truth mainstream media won’t touch.
🔍 In this Sunday exposé, we uncover:
Allegations of $1/hour wages for vulnerable people in rehab programs
A $1.87 million settlement for illegal background checks
Three federal courts rejecting The Salvation Army’s legal defenses
Thousands of victims still fighting for justice
🛑 This isn’t about attacking charity.
📖 I currently live in a Salvation Army program — and have for 4.5 years.
This is about telling the truth, holding power accountable, and protecting the vulnerable.

📢 What’s Been Reported:
People in Salvation Army programs often work in the organization's thrift stores, warehouses, or operations. In return, they receive basic necessities like food and shelter — and sometimes small vouchers to spend in Salvation Army stores.
But they don’t receive wages.
In some cases, their welfare or disability checks are even redirected to the organization.
Participants are often required to work long hours — 40 hours a week or more — while receiving little to no actual income.
This arrangement has been widely criticized as exploitative, especially given the vulnerable populations involved.
