In the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, it’s more clear than ever that the U.S’s 3.5 million direct care workers are critically important to our nation’s health—but are not valued accordingly. The Making Care Work Pay report demonstrates that paying a living wage has the power to reduce staff shortages and turn-over, improve productivity and quality of care, infuse billions of dollars into local economies, and offer financial security and independence of care workers themselves.
