SEIU 2015 Celebrates National Caregivers Month

November is National Family Caregivers month – a time to recognize and appreciate the work that all caregivers do by providing care to our parents, grandparents and loved ones with disabilities.

Yet, many caregivers continue to struggle to make ends meet due to low wages.  And with our growing senior population the demand for care will soon exceed the caregivers available to deliver care unless we are able to attract and retain workers.
