Ms. Messerli's Case Study Adult And Adult Challenge
Hi Chedister,
Here is some updated information regarding Ms. Messerli’s case. Ms. Messerli is still at MN Adult & Teen challenge. Her counselor name is Dean Theophilos at MN Teen & Adult Challenge. He stated that he will be at the court today and her probation officer Kathy Nepo. Also, I found out that she will be at her current place for about 3 months. I believe Ms. Messerli needs to stay longer than 3 months. She definitely needs help as far as her addictions. Is there a way for her to stay at MN Teen & Adult Challenge more than 3 months?
Also,
Ms. Messerli and her counselor both reported that two random UA’s were done on 8/10/16 and 8/12/16 and both were negative at MN Teen Challenge. Rule 25 assessment was completed on 7/12/16

    In recent debates about remuneration, some controversial issues that have been brought up are about the federal minimum wage, and its influence on society. On one hand, some claim that the federal minimum wage is to low, and in fact, needs to be raised so families can earn a living wage, but also help the poor, promote job growth, support workers, and decrease prices on many goods. One advocate of this view is Aaron Pacitti of The Huffington Post who asserts that “Raising the minimum wage is good economic, good policy and good for workers” (Pacitti). Others, such as John Wihbey of the Journalist’s Resource, however, strongly disagree. Wihbey states that “the real effects of minimum-wage increases are negative: they hurt businesses, raise prices…
