Co-Sponsor Human Services Resolutions HR151 & SR 123
New Moms believes in the strength, dignity, and potential of all families to achieve their goals. Partnering with young moms to invest in generational change takes tremendous talent, and young moms deserve the best partners we can hire. Our team deserves wages that reflect their talent and professionalism. New Moms is committed to being a great employer. Creating a workplace where employees can do their best work on behalf of community members requires adequate funding from all of our partners.
State human services contracts have long ignored increases in the cost of doing business faced by community-based providers like New Moms. This is exacerbated by the fact that contracts rarely cover the full cost of business to begin with. Our direct service team members have borne the brunt of these structural deficits for too long. The Living Wages Thriving Communities campaign seeks to remediate this harm so our communities have the resources and support necessary to flourish.
