The Denver Anti-Discrimination Office has charged the Denver Rescue Mission for allegedly discriminating against former director Kyle Fischler over his sexuality, religious views and disability. His attorney, Laura Wolf, has filed an additional complaint with the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Office.

The Denver Rescue Mission, a nondenominational Christian nonprofit with more than $22 million in active multiyear homeless-services contracts with the City of Denver, agreed to follow Denver's anti-discrimination laws to receive that money. But the charge and complaint state the nonprofit has violated the contracts and the law.

Fischler alleges he was technically fired for being late and missing work -- the first of which he acknowledges and the second he claims was fabricated.

He alleges in the complaints that the real reason he lost his job is because the nonprofit discriminated against him based on his sexuality, religion and disability. He also says leadership at the Denver Rescue Mission created a hostile work environment and refused to provide accommodations for his mental health issues, including post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety and depression, they triggered by grilling him over his sexuality and putting anti-gay policies into the employee handbook.

"We are calling on Denver to end its contracts with the Denver Rescue Mission until the Mission commits to and takes concrete steps to comply with our anti-discrimination laws," Wolf said.
