Pennsylvania Family Care Act

Support Letter

The individuals and organizations who have signed on to this letter of support have expressed their endorsement of the Pennsylvania Family Care Act, which is a critical piece of legislation that can make a meaningful difference in the lives of Pennsylvania

The Pennsylvania Family Care Act addresses a pressing need in our state by providing essential support for families who are caring for their loved ones. Caring for a family member, whether they are a child, spouse, parent, or other relative, can be both emotionally and financially challenging. This Act aims to alleviate some of these burdens by:

  • Offering Paid Family and Medical Leave: Providing employees with paid time off to care for their own health or the health of a family member ensures that they can prioritize their well-being without facing financial hardship.

  • Supporting Working Caregivers: Acknowledging the invaluable role that caregivers play in our society, the Act aims to offer job protection and financial assistance to those who need to take time off to provide care.

  • Promoting Economic Stability: By helping families maintain their financial stability during times of caregiving, the Act contributes to the overall well-being of Pennsylvania's communities.

  • Fostering a Compassionate Society: The Pennsylvania Family Care Act sends a strong message that our state values compassion, family, and the health and well-being of its citizens.

The signers firmly believe that supporting this Act is not only a matter of policy but also a matter of compassion and humanity.

We look forward to witnessing the positive impact of the Pennsylvania Family Care Act on our state.
