Every November we celebrate Provider Appreciation Month, a time to thank caregivers for everything we do. At UDW, caregiving isn’t just about the services we perform for our clients: it’s about
raising pay and benefits so we can keep doing this work and care for our families, it’s advocating for our communities and protecting the rights of seniors and people with disabilities, and it’s making our voices heard at the state capitol. Everything we accomplish is because of you, my fellow caregivers. Alone, our lives and our work can be isolating. Together, we are Caregiver Strong!
This fall we will be holding Provider Appreciation events in all our counties. It is a time for us to come together and share our struggles—and our strengths. Contact your local UDW office and make plans to come. You deserve to be celebrated!
In Solidarity,
Editha Adams
UDW Statewide President
