Valuing Care: Building Inclusive Workplaces Through Narrative Change

The Valuing Care project will gather employer and employee narratives to co-design replicable policies and procedures that improve workplaces for caregivers

The Valuing Care project will utilize the science of narratives to reflect healing and change possibilities available. By cultivating employer narratives, Chicago Commons and our partners will create possible solutions with replicable policies and procedures. These resources will better accommodate caregivers in the workplace, while also demonstrating the return on investment for the employer. Combining employer and employee voices to co-design these policies is critical for changing the narratives about addressing caregiving in the workplace.
