Why shouldn't #ChildCare — especially back-up care — be a standard employment benefit, just like health insurance or PTO? @helpr is pushing to make that the reality for employees of large companies in California. 19thnews.org/2021/04/helpr-a…
2.5 million Californians would be eligible for $840 in employer backed care with #AB1179

It always feels amazing to have a feminist lens on our care work @helpr. Thank you to @19thnews & @ChabeliH for shining light on the solutions vs. just challenges. 19thnews.org/2021/04/helpr-a… #carecantwait #childcare

Today, child care is still not included as a sector on LinkedIn (“tobacco” is, though.) Today in @FastCompany we ask that they add it and help value the over 1 million caregivers who keep our families and economy moving forward.

The pandemic has shown us the significance of caregiving in our economy. Our co-founder, @beckaklauber, published an op-ed in @FastCompany today asking LinkedIn to better value care work by adding it as a sector. Give it a read! fastcompany.com/90622522/why…

CA lawmakers are taking the lessons of the pandemic to heart by crafting legislation that supports our most vulnerable workers.
Child care benefits, safe work conditions, and paid leave are all policies that'll help us rebuild better after the pandemic.

The Senate’s approval of Biden’s $1.9T stimulus plan marks a major shift in U.S. policy towards treating child care as a public good + is a much needed lifeline to both parents and providers!
So happy to see their needs prioritized in this legislation.

Opinion | Biden's proposed stimulus package includes paid leave and childcare support. These policies need to be permanent. By @KatieBethell of @PaidLeaveUS and Becka Klauber Richter of @helpr. businessinsider.com/biden-st…
The need for quality childcare has not changed, but how and where it is delivered may look very different in the years to come. Read our blog on the way working from home is changing the nature of childcare benefits: helpr-app.com/blog-posts/wor…

The pandemic is showing employers just how essential reliable childcare is to their bottom line. What many of them don’t realize is that the cost of providing childcare benefits often isn’t nearly as high as some other benefits thought of as "perks": helpr-app.com/blog-posts/202…
