In April, CSWS and United Academics hosted "Balancing Work and Caregiving: A Best Practices Teach-in," with 43 participants. As a follow-up, UA has released a report that lays out the scope of the issues at University of Oregon and provide hands-on practical strategies to address challenges that have existed long before the Covid-19 pandemic.
for the two years, United Academics and members from the CSWS Caregiver Campaign have collaboratively pushed the UO administration to address issues of equity and inclusion for faculty, staff, and GEs struggling to balance the demands of caregiving while fulfilling their employment expectations.
In addition to the Balancing Work and Caregiving Teach-In report, a video recording of the Teach-In available on the UA caucus webpage. If you have any questions please feel free to contact info@uauoregon.org, with the subject heading "caregiving."
