NYTimes Magazine has finally caught up on what we’ve been saying all along…care work is real work. And it deserves real investment. It shouldn’t end with child care. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/08/magazine/childcare-mothers-politics.html
No one should have to choose between a paycheck and their health care. New Medicaid work rules add more red tape for caregivers, and increase hurdles to care for disabled people. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/01/upshot/trump-medicaid-work-requirements.html

Illinois has over 16,000 people on its Medicaid home care waitlist—one of the longest in the country. It shouldn’t be this way. We need investments in care https://app.publicnewsservice.org/story/illinois-home-care-crisis-deepens-amid-medicaid-changes/95b466cc-7096-43bf-a4f2-b0deac3e05d1
We know Mother's Day can bring up a range of emotions for people, especially caregivers. No matter your connection to motherhood, we want you to know we see you and we are with you. Take care of yourself and one another. Happy Mother's Day. ♥️
Did you know Medicare and Medicaid cover completely different things? If you didn’t, you’re not alone. Most people don’t realize the difference until they’re suddenly navigating care for themselves or a loved one. Read our blog to learn more: https://bit.ly/49BggRA
@debbiedingell.house.gov and our executive director @aijenpoo.bsky.social are calling on Congress to act to make care more accessible. A newly introduced act would strengthen access to care and invest in the care workers who make it possible. bit.ly/4uDiZSR
The child care crisis in America is reaching a breaking point. Child care prices are skyrocketing, providers are closing, and parents are left scrambling. It shouldn’t be this hard. We need accessible, affordable child care. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/13/us/childcare-daycare.html
This is autism acceptance. 💙 For Chris, playing catch is having a conversation—and we will never stop showing up for that conversation. Autism acceptance isn’t just a month. It’s love in action, every single day. It’s about learning someone’s language, even when that language is a game of catch.
Over 5.4 million kids in the U.S. are caregivers, juggling care responsibilities and schoolwork. And the Medicaid cuts could force millions more into that role. time.com/article/2026...

Over the next few years, more and more people are likely to become sandwich caregivers—caring for an aging or disabled adult as well as a child. https://www.the-independent.com/life-style/health-and-families/sandwich-generation-parent-caregiver-crisis-b2948537.html
We’re counting down the days ‘til we’re reunited with the Take Me Home team. Until then, we’re reminiscing on our time at #SundanceFilmFestival 2026. We brought disposable cameras to Park City and just got them developed!
