About this Event
We are those who are most likely to die from this virus, and we are those who are rising to support those who are sick or will get sick. We are coming together to support each other through mutual aid. We call ourselves the Caring Majority because all of us, in some way, are connected by care and caregiving.
We are neighbors, New Yorkers, parents, elders, people with disabilities, people with chronic illness, caregivers, and care workers. We are organizing to defend Medicaid and provide aid and support between neighbors in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis.
As we organize to meet immediate and emerging needs, we are also pushing for the long-term systemic changes for the caring economy all need in order to thrive and live with dignity.
