John,
“Everybody will come to rely on care services at some point in their lives, or knows somebody else who will."
As Coston Plummer, a home care worker in Chicago, delivered this line to a crowded room of caregivers, care recipients, and care activists – along with elected leaders like Secretary of Labor Julie Su – his words were met with applause and recognition. That’s the power of this incredible care movement.
Our Care Can’t Wait bus traveled across the country last week and I was blown away by the outpouring of support and the powerful stories shared by so many of you. Together, with the help of our Care Can’t Wait partners, we created a national conversation about the critical need for care in our communities. The feeling of community and clarity of purpose was so strong.
But our work doesn’t stop here— we need your help to keep the momentum going.
