Hand in Hand: The Domestic Employers Network
Women Breaking the Caregiving Ceiling (WBCC)
Shift caregiving narratives from individual to a collective responsibility by empowering professionals who care for elders and medically complex disabled children to lead systemic change.
The caregiving ceiling holds career women back by positioning caregiving as a personal responsibility and "burden." This project will empower career women who employ home caregivers or provide family caregiving to drive narrative change about the systemic challenges they face in the workplace. Targeting employees at high-impact industries and employers will also set new baseline expectations for caregiver support in the workforce.
