Rally with UAW for Universal Childcare this Thursday at 10am!
Nearly half of women scientists in the United States leave academia after having their first child. As unionized researchers, we know that strong, accessible childcare support for those of us with young children is essential to making academia more equitable and inclusive.
Join UAW Region 9A and New Yorkers United for Child Care for our campaign kick-off on Thursday, December 11, at 10:00 AM, outside the Governor’s office in Midtown Manhattan (919 3rd Avenue). Click here to RSVP if you can join us on Thursday: https://forms.gle/bmXNCnB8Yb1FYgUr6
Can’t join us on Thursday? You can still show your support by signing the petition calling for universal child care for all two-year-olds in New York City, building on the success of universal 3-K and pre-K. Click here to add your name to the petition!
In solidarity,
