Love Doesn't Pay the Bills makes visible the experience of family caregiving, and it's relation to other aspects of life. In Love Doesn't Pay the Bills, we explore the role of family caregivers in the modern United States through personal stories and interviews with leaders. Women do by far the biggest share of unpaid of care work within families, and that fact is one of the greatest contributors to financial and power inequality between the genders. Care work is vital to all other aspects of life, yet often under-resourced. Caregivers cannot house and feed ourselves or provide for our own medical needs based on our love for our family members alone: access to income matters. We also have the same needs as other workers for regular time off, to participate in social life, for ongoing education and new opportunities over time. Lisa email Lisa:
