Momentum Builds for the Colorado CARE Act! Read Our Full Advocacy Statement Now.


Dear Supporters,
Thank you! Thanks to your commitment and belief in this crucial cause, our petition for the Colorado CARE (Caregiver Accommodation & Rights Expansion) Act has reached 544 signatures and is joined by nearly 500 dedicated supporters! Your voice is making a difference as we push for essential workplace protections for caregivers in Colorado.
As we continue to build momentum, we're excited to announce the publication of a comprehensive advocacy statement, authored by Mark, Director of Advocacy for Professionals Who Care and founder of CASI. This statement lays out the full picture of the "silent crisis" facing working caregivers, details the urgent need for the CARE Act (especially in light of ongoing Medicaid losses nationally and here in Colorado, and state budget challenges), explains why existing laws fall short, and highlights how our fiscally responsible bill will make a real difference, building on successful efforts in other states.
This is the essential reading to understand why the Colorado CARE Act is not just necessary, but imperative right now.
You can read the full advocacy statement on the Professionals Who Care website here: [The Invisible Castes: Why Caregivers and the Disabled Deserve More Than the Shadows – A National Imperative, Building on Progress in States Like Massachusetts, New York, Illinois, and California.]
Please take a moment to read it, share it widely with your network, and help us continue to grow this vital movement.
If you haven't already, please sign the petition. If you have, please share it with friends, family, and colleagues who care about supporting working families and ensuring no one has to choose between their job and caring for a loved one.
Thank you for your continued support!
Kindly,
Mark & The CASI / Professionals Who Care Team
