Lifting Families Out of Poverty

As 190,000 homecare workers and nursing home workers united through the state, we are committed to working together to improve the lives of seniors, people with disabilities and long-term care workers who provide quality care.

Building unity through union organizing has been an effective tool in improving long-term care in various ways:

-  Educating the public about the important role caregivers play in society.
-  Increasing workers' wages and benefits that have resulted in lower caregiver turnover rates.
-  Advocating for quality care for seniors and people with disabilities
- gaining the political strength to help pass needed long-term care legislative reforms.
- building coalitions to advocate for quality long-term care.



Our Vision:

 Ensure a quality, stable long-term care system for seniors and 
         people with disabilities

Lift long-term care workers out of poverty by providing a pay scale and benefits 
         equivalent to hospital care professionals.

 Educate the public about the important role caregivers play in society.

 Help long-term care worker and their families achieve economic justice through 
          livable wages, healthcare, affordable housing, and education.

 Ensure family health care, sick leave, vacation, and pension benefits for all 
         members.
