Your voice is important, whether you're a home care worker, client, employer, or family member--or just a concerned citizen. Here are some ways to help win minimum wage and overtime pay for home care workers:

Thank you for your support. Your action will make a difference for home care workers and the people who depend on them.

Are you a direct care worker who wants to see home care workers get the respect they deserve? A home care client or employer who wants to do something for the workers who do so much for you? A concerned citizen who wants to do the right thing by these vital caregivers?

If any of those descriptions applies to you, there are three ways you can participate in our National Day of Action, Friday, September 21, to help win minimum wage and overtime pay for home care workers.

1. Come with us to Capitol Hill. If you can get to Washington, DC on the morning of the 21st, please join us for visits to your members of Congress. We'll set up the meetings for you, provide you with advance training, and give you talking points to use in your meetings.

2. Visit your elected representatives in your home state. If you can't get to Washington, you can help at home. Our National Day of Action will take place wherever you are.

3. Donate to DCA. A donation of as little as $20 will help bring a direct care worker to DC.

To participate in the National Day of Action, either at home or on Capitol Hill, contact our national advocacy coordinator, Jessica Brill Ortiz, at (202) 236-4593 or jbrillortiz@directcarealliance.org.
