He stopped taking it which made him seriously ill and put his life at risk.<\/p>\n<p>With the help of NCL\u2019s Script Your Future program, as well as free medications provided through the St. Vincent de Paul Charitable Pharmacy, an active partner with Script Your Future in Cincinnati, Charles now has his good health back. His diabetes medication is now keeping his blood sugar levels under control, and he has begun to lose some of the weight that contributed to his health problems.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Everything Script Your Future and St. Vincent de Paul Charitable Pharmacy have done for me and continue to do for me has literally kept me alive. Had they not helped me get back on track with my medication, I wouldn\u2019t be here today,\u201d said Charles.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" id=\"style-css-av-15jtpo9-ba3d83bfa4f51d33c797b3349943dfbe\">\n#top .flex_column.av-15jtpo9-ba3d83bfa4f51d33c797b3349943dfbe{\nborder-radius:0px;\n-webkit-border-radius:0px;\n-moz-border-radius:0px;\npadding:0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div class='flex_column av-15jtpo9-ba3d83bfa4f51d33c797b3349943dfbe av_one_third  avia-builder-el-24  el_after_av_two_third  el_before_av_two_third  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding column-top-margin'   ><style type=\"text\/css\" id=\"style-css-av-kd8v6po5-6c0ab8beb9efaa8b019ad9fb61ffec88\">\n.avia-image-container.av-kd8v6po5-6c0ab8beb9efaa8b019ad9fb61ffec88 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-kd8v6po5-6c0ab8beb9efaa8b019ad9fb61ffec88 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-25  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  '  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" class='wp-image-12228 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-12228 avia_image' src=\"https:\/\/nclnet.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Jeremy.jpg\" alt='' title='Jeremy'  height=\"370\" width=\"340\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nclnet.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Jeremy.jpg 340w, https:\/\/nclnet.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Jeremy-276x300.jpg 276w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 340px) 100vw, 340px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" id=\"style-css-av-38ei6x-4e0dbd2db909abbcf45cdf5b8b289e4c\">\n#top .flex_column.av-38ei6x-4e0dbd2db909abbcf45cdf5b8b289e4c{\nborder-radius:0px;\n-webkit-border-radius:0px;\n-moz-border-radius:0px;\npadding:0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div class='flex_column av-38ei6x-4e0dbd2db909abbcf45cdf5b8b289e4c av_two_third  avia-builder-el-26  el_after_av_one_third  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding column-top-margin'   id=\"worker\"  ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" id=\"style-css-av-kd8ugd0y-acdf00bbe186577ee7c9e8864c3fc19e\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-kd8ugd0y-acdf00bbe186577ee7c9e8864c3fc19e{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-kd8ugd0y-acdf00bbe186577ee7c9e8864c3fc19e av-special-heading-h3 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-27  el_before_av_heading  avia-builder-el-first  '><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Worker<\/h3><div class='special-heading-border'><div class='special-heading-inner-border'><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" id=\"style-css-av-kd8ugd0y-8023d9966dec79a0999eaa09259309b2\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-kd8ugd0y-8023d9966dec79a0999eaa09259309b2{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-kd8ugd0y-8023d9966dec79a0999eaa09259309b2 av-special-heading-h4 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-28  el_after_av_heading  el_before_av_textblock  '><h4 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >For a safer workplace<\/h4><div class='special-heading-border'><div class='special-heading-inner-border'><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '   itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Jeremy is a fast-food worker who has been employed at a number of Chipotle restaurants in New York City. When he was just 20 years old, he took part in an NCL research project that revealed that management practices within the fast food chain were putting workers\u2014and food safety for customers\u2014at risk.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe chose to blow the whistle on these practices and abuses because our Chipotle managers did not listen to us,\u201d said Jeremy. \u201cIt\u2019s a pressure-packed workplace where supervisors intimidate you and retaliate against you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The release of NCL\u2019s research\u2014conducted in partnership with the local SEIU chapter\u2014helped peel back the curtain on the chain, which touts its food as health and fresh. Just months later, the Department of Justice imposed on Chipotle the largest criminal fine ever for a food safety case and said the company needs to make further reforms to address the core issues that are driving worker abuses and violations of food safety protocols.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nclnet.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12217"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nclnet.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nclnet.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nclnet.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nclnet.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12217"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/nclnet.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12217\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23845,"href":"https:\/\/nclnet.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12217\/revisions\/23845"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nclnet.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12217"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
