Despite how crucial the role of care workers is for the well-being of our communities, they are still highly undervalued.
When crises strike, we turn to our friends, families and sometimes even complete strangers to provide an extra set of caring and supporting hands. Care workers have always played an essential role in our communities, from assisting with child care to providing professional support to the elderly. In a moment of crisis, care work becomes even more valuable, as many of us have learned throughout the global pandemic.

There is no such thing as six feet away when we have to lift our patients, bathe them, feed them and change their clothes and bedding.
Caregivers are on the frontlines of every tragedy and disaster which makes us the perfect advocates for fighting for a fairer and safer world. As we enter year three of the pandemic, we have had to be retrained to provide safe and reliable care in an increasingly dangerous world.
