Vote for our "What If America Loved Moms?" panel for South by Southwest 2025 (SXSW). SXSW is a major culture, music, and art conference and festival held in Austin, Texas each year. If there's an idea worth sharing, SXSW is the place to be — and we want to make sure the future of care is at the center of next year's event. |
John — imagine a future where we had paid leave and quality, affordable child care, where we didn’t have to choose between family or careers to be considered a “good mom.” Imagine if motherhood came with systems of support to make life a little easier. This is the future we’re envisioning — a future where care is prioritized and supported at every level.
To bring this conversation to the forefront, we’ve proposed a panel titled "What If America Loved Moms?" for SXSW.
Featuring NDWA founder and President Ai-jen Poo, actress and comedian June Diane Raphael, SEIU President April Verrett, and Emma Biggs, Director of the Pathway Preschool Center, this panel will explore how we can create systems of support that make life easier for all families.
But, to make this panel happen, we need your help. Panels at SXSW are selected, in part, by a Community Vote. Voting ends August 18 and we’re counting on you to vote for our panel to ensure we can bring this important conversation to the forefront.
Care is something we all need at some point — whether for ourselves or a loved one — and many of us will provide it. Yet, America's lack of care infrastructure has led to a crisis that affects families across generations and cultures. By voting for our panel, you’re helping to bring this conversation to SXSW, ensuring that care is placed at the center of our national dialogue.
Thanks for all that you do,

National Domestic Workers Alliance
Thank you for being a dedicated supporter of the National Domestic Workers Alliance!
We're working day and night to win respect, recognition, and labor rights and protections for the more than 2.5 million nannies, house cleaners, and homecare workers.
The majority of domestic workers sit at the center of some of our nation’s most decisive issues because of who they are and what they do: they are women – mostly women of color, immigrants, mothers, and low-wage workers. They are impacted by almost every policy affecting the future of our economy, democracy and country.
Domestic workers can lead us toward a new, inclusive vision for the future for all of us -- and your grassroots support is the fuel that can get us there.
