COVID-19 has upended many parts of our lives, but systemic racism and long-standing racial disparities remain--and this public health crisis has only magnified their effects. Black families and other families of color are disproportionately losing their lives and their livelihoods to this crisis.

We're calling on Congress to provide relief to families now, while taking steps to abolish systemic barriers that hold our children--especially Black children--back at every step.
Today, we're launching our COVID-19 Action Center. Here you'll find resources and analysis about the policy changes we're fighting for to help vulnerable families weather the current crisis and break down barriers for children and families of color in the long term.

You can join the fight by calling on your elected officials to meet both the urgent and long-standing needs of children and families.
We will keep pursuing justice for the children and families our nation has failed to protect from the parallel pandemics of COVID-19 and structural racism. We couldn't do this work without you--thank you for being part of this fight.
