Policies for Working Parents Navigating Covid-19
WFF has compiled a summary of concerns over childcare and related support raised by faculty in these soundings. The new report, “More than Just Child Care: Policies for Working Parents Navigating Covid-19 and Beyond,” emphasizes two points: firstly, that considerations around child care should be contextualized within wider approaches to faculty work, and secondly, that the impacts of the coronavirus have substantially worsened existing issues of equity and diversity, both at Yale and elsewhere. These inequities will need to be reckoned with long into the future, even after the pandemic subsides.
The report, prepared by Claire Bowern (WFF Chair), Oana Capatina, Reina Maruyama, Naomi Rogers, Nancy Ruther, and Rene Almeling, is linked here.
