NY Home care workers win raises!
SIGN UP FOR UPDATES
We fought for years and we finally WON a higher base rate for NY home care workers! The new base rate for home care is $15.20 starting October 1, 2022 - this will go up to $16.20 on October 1, 2023.
There were times last year when Albany leaders proposed a budget that wouldn't have given home care workers a penny. In response, Healthcare Workers Rising organized statewide to demand better pay and we won an historic victory: a budget that invests $7.4 billion towards raising our pay. Thank you to the New York home care workers who made over 5,000 calls, 100+ visits to elected officials, and showed up at protests across the state - you did it!
