CLASP and our partners at Caring Across Generations, We Dream in Black, and the Center for American Progress invite you to a virtual Congressional Briefing on Race, Racism and Care Infrastructure on August 13th, at 1pm ET.
The undervaluing and underfunding of child care, elder care, and support for people with disabilities and aging individuals have disproportionately impacted Black and Brown families, during COVID-19 and long before it. Join us as we explore the deep systemic racism inherent in our care infrastructure and the investments we must make now to make care jobs good jobs, create a foundation of security and success for Black and Brown families, and fuel a swift and just economic recovery.

- Congressman Joaquin Castro (D-TX)
