About Caring Across Generations

Caring Across Generations is a national organization working to make care more affordable and accessible at every stage of life, while ensuring caregivers – both family caregivers and professional care workers – disabled people, and aging adults are able to live, work, and age with respect and dignity.

Founded in 2011 by Sarita Gupta and Ai-jen Poo (who were the executive directors of Jobs with Justice and the National Domestic Workers Alliance, respectively), we take an explicitly intersectional approach to our work, connecting the dots between the urgent need to build a strong care infrastructure and the need for bold action on gender, racial, economic and disability justice, and addressing the growing needs of our aging population.

Caring Across is focused on creating change in three ways:

Organizing a powerful movement of the Caring Majority - the majority of Americans who are directly affected by the need for care;
Fighting for groundbreaking policy at the state and federal levels;
Changing hearts and minds through storytelling and culture change campaigns to evolve the way our society relates to and values caregiving.
