Our joy is a sign of our strength.

We’ve been on the frontlines gaining rights, dignity, and respect for domestic workers, building a society that recognizes the work that makes all other work possible.

Domestic workers have been fighting for state Bills of Rights to protect workers from exploitation—and it hasn’t been easy.

Domestic workers already carry a huge load through the work itself. And still, workers marched, organized, showed up, and took action in their free time to secure labor protections for our communities. That's when Ai-jen Poo knew this movement was going to grow into something unstoppable.

Domestic workers center joy—even while facing exploitation, anti-immigrant attacks, and their rights being violated in plain sight.

Through our incredible organizers and advocates, we’ve fought for and won Domestic Workers’ Bills of Rights across 13 states—and we’re still fighting for more.

Our joy is resistance. Our organizing wins. Our work matters.

Deon wants her work to be seen.

Because when your workplace is someone else’s home, so much of what you do can go unnoticed.

Her days are full—feeding, comforting, cleaning, organizing, anticipating needs, keeping routines moving, and giving children the care and attention they need to thrive.

It’s skilled, demanding, deeply human work. We won't stop fighting for it to be recognized as such.

We're still reeling from this incredible collab for our Daisy Chain Fields IG takeover🫰

Olivia Rodrigo gets it: care work is work. And the women—especially Black, Brown, and Indigenous women—who have always carried so much of it deserve to be valued, protected, and paid accordingly.

Women's rights means the rights to our bodies, our dignity, and our labor protections.

Big news: NDWA has been nominated as an August 2026 CREDO Mobile grant recipient. Now we need your help!

The amount of funding we receive depends on how many people vote for us by August 31. Voting is free, takes less than a minute, and anyone can do it on credomobile.com ✨

Every vote helps us fight for the rights, dignity, and safety of domestic workers—from protecting immigrant care workers and defending home- and community-based care to advancing fair wages and stronger workplace protections.

When Ai-jen Poo founded the National Domestic Workers Alliance, she helped build a movement rooted in a simple truth: care is the work that makes all other work possible.

To represent care on a national level is to stand with the women who care for our children, our elders, our homes, and our communities—and to fight until their work is valued with the dignity, protections, and respect it has always deserved.

Because care has always belonged at the center.

Women have always held our families and communities together. We want to live in a world where that labor is always valued, too.🐝

Huge shoutout to Olivia Rodrigo and Daisy Chain Fields for having us✨

At NDWA, we organize alongside nannies, house cleaners, and home care workers to win fair wages, stronger protections, and the dignity every domestic worker deserves🧡

Here’s to the Black, Brown, and Indigenous women building a future where every woman who cares for others is cared for, too.

Women have always led our movement forward.

They’ve cared for our families, held our communities together, and still found the strength to organize for something better. These are the women fighting for fair wages, safer workplaces, dignity, and the recognition that care work is real work.

Here’s to the domestic workers building a future where every woman who cares for others is cared for, too.

“To speak the language women speak when there is no one there to correct us.”

Being a woman is an act of resistance in a world that too often undervalues our labor, our lives, and our love.

In this moving conversation on NPR’s Wildcard, Terry Tempest Williams reflects on her mother’s final chapter, the journals she left behind, and the legacy of care, resilience, and wisdom passed from one woman to the next.
