About
Our Mission Our mission is to promote equality and expand choices for men and women at all income levels so they may care for their families without sacrificing their economic security. We employ a range of legal strategies to promote flexible workplace policies, end discrimination against caregivers and value the work of caring for families. Who We Are At some point in our lives, we are all likely to be primary caregivers to a child, spouse, parent or other family member, or to need care ourselves. Caregiving is an issue that affects everyone. A Better Balance is a legal team fighting to give American workers the time and flexibility they need to care for their families. We help to balance the demands of employment and home, ensuring that families are prioritized--not punished--in the workplace. We lead the charge for policies that help families, such as sick leave, flex time, pay equity, antidiscrimination, and other issues that value family care. Although our work benefits families of all income levels, it is low-income families that benefit most. Our efforts help people who work outside and inside the home achieve a better balance between providing for their families and caring for them. A History of a Better Balance The founders of A Better Balance are a group of lawyers who have successfully worked together on a variety of women’s rights and economic issues and now seek to forge a comprehensive multi-strategic approach to addressing the work-family dilemma. We are particularly well qualified to take on the task of transforming the American workplace and raising awareness of the importance of caregiving in public policy decisions. We have extensive experience building coalitions, advocating for change, litigating impact cases, developing new legislation and educating employers, labor unions and the public on economic justice issues important to women.
