Three out of four caregivers are women*.
When women bear the brunt of caregiving without adequate support, they face financial strain, emotional exhaustion, and limited opportunities for personal and professional growth. This not only affects their well-being but also has broader implications for society.
Women caregivers often reduce their work hours or leave their jobs, resulting in lost income and diminished career prospects. This contributes to the gender pay gap and reduces overall economic productivity.
In addition, the stress and physical demands of caregiving can lead to serious health issues for caregivers, increasing healthcare costs and reducing their quality of life .
And, when caregivers are overwhelmed, it can affect the entire family, leading to increased stress and potential disruptions in family dynamics.
Supporting family caregivers is important because they play a critical role in maintaining the health and well-being of their loved ones. Making sure they have adequate support ensures that caregivers can continue their essential work without compromising their own health, stability, and economic security, ultimately benefiting the entire community.

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.
