Care Is Leadership: Changing Who Leads and Why
A leadership and narrative change initiative that centers caregivers to transform workplace norms and expand representation in leadership, policy, and decision-making across Oregon.
Caregiving responsibilities are treated as individual challenges rather than structural issues shaped by racism, sexism, and economic inequality, limiting who can lead and whose experiences inform workplaces, policy, and decision-making.This initiative centers caregivers as leaders, reframing caregiving as a strength while building leadership skills, narrative power, and pathways for workplace, civic, and policy engagement across Oregon.By expanding leadership development for caregivers, the project aims to shift norms, strengthen representation, and advance equitable outcomes.
