Vic Vela, a former reporter and podcaster for Colorado Public Radio, has filed a complaint alleging that the station discriminated and retaliated against him.
Vela filed the complaint last week with the Colorado Civil Rights Division and the Equal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. He said CPR fired him soon after he “complained that conditions at work threatened my lifelong recovery efforts, and that I needed support and accommodation.”
Vela, who has a history of addiction, shared his experience with recovery and those of others in the CPR podcast Back From Broken. Vela had worked full-time at CPR since 2015.
