I hope AZ never gets rid of that benefit. I hope more states would recognize this need. Keep up the good fight. God bless you and your family. 💜💜💜

Aryana | Medical Mama :
I’m an RN, and Massachusetts allows me to work as my daughters nurse through an agency just like any other nurse. It’s the biggest blessing!

Being able to be a paid caregiver has changed my parents’/brother’s lives! It is literally such a financial and emotional relief.

I wish iowa would allow parents to get paid to care for their own child! Luckily we can have grandma do it! But being home with your babe everyday would be so much better!

You should join the raising voices coalition! You are entitled to this compensation & the state has tried to take it away before. If you haven’t, check into the ESA scholarship as well!

You are so lucky!!!! Not an option in WI. My daughter is 22 years old and I had to work full time and try to take care of my daughter. It was tough.

GIRL! I tried sitting in my car today and filming a video to explain how ohio doesn't have this until kids are the age of 3 and how unfair it is. Idk how to word it and I feel like I sound like a brat talking about being paid to take care of my daughter. But our lives are so different from others and we deserve this so much! I'm so so happy you have this to lean on and pray you always do, YOU deserve it🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🦓😘😘

Kalie and P :
This program is imperative!!! No o e can understand the impact until you’re in the situation. The care for our kids depends on it! These kids deserve the world and having a parent caregiver home is the bare minimum! So glad you get to be home with your girl 💛💛

Okay moving to Arizona!! We’re on a waitlist in WV thats over 1000 😢 we’ve already been on it for 2 years and they told us 3-5 years to begin with, which is his life span, so it’s crazy to me!

They dropped this program in Idaho or one similar. I just brought my medically complex kiddo home from a 421 day NICU stay and it is weighing on me. 😭
