Send a message to Congress that immigrant caregivers are critical for our families & communities!

Spotlight an immigrant caregiver & fight anti-immigrant rhetoric!

National Caregivers Day is just days away! And this February 16th we’re going to lift up immigrant caregivers and remind everyone that immigrants are critical to our families, our communities, and the economy!

Why now? We’re hearing a lot of anti-immigrant rhetoric and cruel anti-immigrant measures being proposed in Congress. It’s time to speak up for the fair treatment of immigrants in our families, workplaces, and communities.

"I have personally benefited from the work of immigrant home health aides. During this pandemic they made it possible for me as an elderly disabled person, to stay home when New York City was ground zero for the disease. They braved the risks of the pandemic to come to work, and therefore keep me alive."
