CWA Child Care Providers Picket for Better Working Conditions

CWA Local 1037 members, who provide in-home family child care services in Passaic County, N.J., flexed their collective muscle earlier this month with a picket outside of 4Cs, a Child Care Resource and Referral Agency responsible for administering the county’s Family Child Care Registration Program.

The members, who provide in-home care for children, delivered a petition signed by nearly 100 family child care providers to 4Cs, detailing the unfair treatment and lack of respect. They are demanding that management address these issues, which, they contend, impact their ability to provide consistent and stable services to families across their community.

Though this fight has been going on for months, management continues to ignore the issues. The child care providers remain steadfast in their drive for equality and dignity and are determined to continue until their voices are heard and the issues are resolved.
