Home care workers do hard, essential, compassionate work, yet we struggle to pay our rent and put food on the table.
The demand for home care in Pennsylvania is exploding, yet there is only one home care worker for every 8 people who want and need to have care inside their own homes. Right now, the system doesn’t work for clients or workers: Families can’t afford to get the care they need, and workers can’t afford to provide it.
Home care workers across Pennsylvania are joining together in the United Home Care Workers of Pennsylvania to raise up home care.
