Immigrant workers are the backbone of our care system—nearly 30% of care workers in the U.S. come from other countries. Yet instead of strengthening this essential workforce, the current Administration’s crackdown is making things worse—deepening workforce shortages, driving up costs, and making elder care even more expensive for families.

Right now, immigrant domestic workers across the country are living in fear and isolation. Families rightfully worry that ICE could show up and take their loved ones away. We can’t let this happen. We're fighting back by mobilizing domestic employers to stand with immigrant care workers and demand dignity, respect, and fair policies.

Domestic employers–especially those who employ nannies, housecleaners, and caregivers–can be powerful allies. With the right training and tools, they can help protect their workers from harm. That’s why we created My Home is a Sanctuary Workplace (MHSW)—a crucial training program that empowers employers to take action, stand in solidarity, and create safety for their workers.

For 15 years, we’ve been on the frontlines—fighting to ensure domestic workers and caregivers receive the respect and dignity they deserve. Now, more than ever, we need your help to expand these trainings, reach more employers, and build a future where immigrant domestic workers can live and work without fear.

Join us in this urgent work and donate today to stand with immigrant domestic workers and the families who employ them. Every dollar counts. Together, we can protect those who care for us!
