Women's unpaid labor is coming at a cost. Jessica Calarco's new book details how our country's systemic issues exploit women and negatively affect everyone's quality of life. But it also provides plenty of research to point us in a new, more equitable direction.
“This book is an ode to the women who do the work of holding it together and an effort to show how their underpaid but essential labor keeps our society—and our economy—from falling apart. I want them to see that they serve as the safety net in a society that has forced them to make do without the support they need."
Register now for our upcoming in-person interview with Jessica Calarco, author of Holding It Together: How Women Became America's Safety Net and A Field Guide to Grad School : Uncovering the Hidden Curriculum. She will be in conversation with Sally Haldorson, Porchlight's Managing Director.
