The Crisis: New York’s Worst-in-The-Nation Home Care Workforce Shortage and why it's important to pass the Fair Pay for Homecare Act.

How has the assistance of home care workers helped you as you care for loved ones? Was there ever a time you couldn’t find a home care worker when you needed one? We all have a care story – what is yours?

Hear from Bobbie Sackman, a long time leading advocate for services for older adults discuss the home care crisis in NY. Bobbie is a Campaign Leader with the NY Caring Majority/Jews for Racial and Economic Justice – nycaringmajority.org

She will describe the current crisis-level shortage of home care workers. She will fill us in on the work of the NY Caring Majority, a statewide coalition of older adults, people with disabilities, family caregivers, home care workers, and others working to ensure home care workers get paid a living wage and New Yorkers can receive the care they need safely at home.
