Ohio Coalition for Work Family Balance
Work Family Balance is on a mission to address poor work life balance in the workforce and to increase working parents' work life balance for greater health and happiness. While direct expert support is important for working parents, there's more that can and must be done. Working parents need members of Congress to support policies that make it easier to balance work and family. That's why Work Family Balance is creating the Ohio Coalition for Work Family Balance.
Advocating for Working Parents & Children
As an organization, advocacy is an important part of the work we do to support working parents and their children. However, in order to be effective advocates, we must build a diverse coalition of supporters, including working families in rural, urban, and suburban Ohio communities and small and large businesses and community organizations operating in Ohio.
Partners & Leaders for Change
Working families and businesses make excellent partners and leaders for change because both are significantly affected by poor work life balance. For families and businesses the problem is the same. The problem is one of quality.
For families, quality of life goes down (including poor physical and mental health) with low or inadequate work life balance, and for businesses, quality of work and productivity goes down when employees have poor work life balance.
Join our Coalition
Work Family Balance is growing our coalition of supporters so we can be more effective advocates. It will take a diverse, family, business, and community centered coalition of Ohioans to advance better public policies that support working parents and make it easier for workers to balance work and family.
Your support will strengthen our network, amplify our message, and enhance our advocacy work. Together, we can advance public policies that better support working parents and children. Thank you!
