Mom Corps is making headlines for introducing “Expert Coaching,” to their program which connects moms to employers.

If you want to understand the issues moms have, check out Mom Corps and MomsRising.org, a 140,000 member non partisan organization dedicated to making the country more family-friendly. These MOTHERs have issues! And they’re spelling them out!

M - Maternity/Paternity Leave: Provide paid family leave after a new child comes into the family.

O - Open Flexible Work: Promote jobs that have work hours and career options that allow parents to meet both business and family needs: flexible work hours and locations, part time options and the ability to move in and out of the labor force while raising young children without penalties to wages and benefits.

T - TV We Choose and Other After-School Programs: Ensure safe and educational opportunities for children after the school day such as accessible and affordable afterschool programs, age-appropriate computer games, as well as more educational television options and an independent television rating system, with technology that allows parents to choose appropriate programs for children.

H - Healthcare for All Kids: All children must have quality health care.

E - Excellent Childcare: Quality, affordable childcare should be available to all parents who need it. Childcare providers should be paid at least a living wage and healthcare benefits.

R - Realistic and Fair Wages: Two full-time working parents should be able to earn enough to adequately care for their family. In addition, working mothers must receive equal pay for equal work.

S- Sick Days, Paid: All people should have access to paid sick days.

Makes sense to me. So check out this video and for mothers, children, and families! Tell your representatives childcare is important!
