	"title": "Calling on LAUSD to Support Educator Parents",
	"thumbnail_url": "https://actionnetwork.org//images/generic_facebook.jpg",
	"description": "LAUSD recently announced plans to reopen campuses under a hybrid program. This program would require teachers to be on campus, working with cohorts or supervising a group of advisory students while simultaneously teaching online classes. While LAUSD has included choice for parents in this model, they forgot an important group of parents -- their own educators. Childcare facilities have always been in short supply, with the pandemic exacerbating these limited spaces. Like many others during this crisis, parent educators have juggled parenting responsibilities with full-time work from home, but the current LAUSD hybrid model asks us to choose -- our children or our job. We call on LAUSD to stand behind a commitment to get through this crisis together by offering parents and care-giving educators the same choice they are offering families at large - the opportunity to continue caring for our loved ones - without leaving our jobs as the current model requires. Accommodations for working parents and care-givers are essential to ensuring that LAUSD retains employees. Working from home is a privilege, but decades of inadequate funding, outdated and cramped campuses, and a preexisting staffing shortage are catching up to us at this moment. While we recognize the tremendous efforts of our district and various labor groups to prioritize health and safety in this plan, we are also facing a crisis of labor, as parents, particularly women of color, leave the workforce in unprecedented numbers. We ask that LAUSD step up to a moral and ethical obligation to support parents, including their own employees.",
