At California Caregiver Movement, we are committed to supporting caregivers — the essential workers who dedicate their lives to caring for others, yet often struggle in silence.
Caregivers are the backbone of California’s In-Home, ARF, and RCFE systems. They provide daily assistance, compassion, life-changing support, and care to seniors, individuals with disabilities, and those in crucial need.
Yet many caregivers earn between $20,000–$38,000 per year — often living paycheck to paycheck while performing some of the most demanding work in our communities.
Caregivers often commit years of their lives to one client — being on call, working long hours, and sacrificing holidays and personal time.
When a long-term client passes away, many caregivers suddenly face unemployment while waiting for reassignment. During that gap, they may struggle to pay:
They care for everyone — but no one is caring for them.
That’s where we step in.
