Caring Out Loud

Caregiving is the backbone of our economy and society, but it’s often invisible, undervalued, and unsupported. Out of sight means out of mind for policymakers, bosses, and candidates — but storytellers from Family Values @ Work’s nationwide network will help change that.

Join us for an unforgettable evening of storytelling that illuminates the often-overlooked work of caregiving.

Caring Out Loud: True Stories About Caregiving
Date: Friday, September 13th
Time: 6:00 PM ET
Location: MLK Library Auditorium, Washington D.C. (and Live Streamed!)
Light refreshments will be served.

Through powerful personal stories, we’ll explore the challenges and triumphs of working families navigating a system that too often makes caring for loved ones impossible.

Caring Out Loud is a night of first-person storytelling about working families caring for each other in a system that’s determined to make that impossible: Chosen family coming to a friend’s rescue after random violence. An uncle stepping in when a family tragedy strikes. A couple navigating the hard decision of who can go back to work after the birth of their baby. A new mom struggling to piece together work and child care. A parent trying to navigate emergency care for an adult son with life-threatening COVID complications. A worker sacrificing a much-wanted promotion to be with family during the loss of a beloved in-law.

Let’s break the silence and amplify the stories that matter. You can attend in person or via live stream. Together, we can build a future where everyone has the freedom to care.
