The Work That Makes All Other Work Possible

Caregiving is the work that makes all other work possible, but it doesn’t always get the respect it deserves -— whether it’s done by an employee or a family member. Ai Jen Poo believes that we should make care policies like family leave, child care, and child tax credits part of our public infrastructure. As investments in the future of the economy.
