We had a busy week celebrating our incredible members in Merced County for #ProviderAppreciationMonth! We had great food, fun raffles, and amazing company while we celebrated each other!

@yourkerncounty can you hear us?
Over 100 of us came to today’s Board of Supervisors meeting asking you once again for a fair contract that gives IHSS providers in Kern the dignified wages we deserve!
Our futures and those of our clients are at stake—and you cannot keep pawning our contract off as a state problem. We need a fair contract now! #KernCareNegotiations

Every day without a contract is another day of hardship for IHSS workers. Our goal is to secure fair negotiations and better support. #KernCareNegotiations

We mourn the passing of former first lady Rosalynn

We mourn the passing of former first lady Rosalynn Carter this past weekend. She was a tireless advocate for those who provide and need care in our country and we are grateful for all her work.

“There are only four kinds of people in the world — those that have been caregivers, those that are caregivers, those who will be caregivers, and those who will need caregivers.”

Today we celebrated Provider Appreciation Month with over 280 of our fellow IHSS providers in Kern County! We are so grateful to have this time to acknowledge the work we do year-round, enjoy delicious food, even better company, and win a few prizes.

But our evening didn’t stop there! Because we know our work changes lives and is the backbone of our communities, we used this time to organize and strengthen our fight for better wages and benefits in our county.

Thank you all who attended and for those of you who are ready to join us in this fight starting November 28! #KernCareNegotiations
