The NC Families Care Campaign is a growing statewide coalition of organizations and individuals who are leading the effort to make North Carolina more family-friendly.

Working together, community, religious, labor, healthcare, professional, and family groups are advocating for North Carolina employees to earn paid sick days so they can take care of themselves or their family members when illness strikes and be able to access paid family and medical leave.

The partners that make up the NC Families Care Campaign come from diverse backgrounds and from all over North Carolina but are united in their commitment to valuing working families.
