National Direct Care Partnership

The Direct Care Alliance brings together long-term care employers, consumers, advocates and others who support our agenda to build consensus and amplify the voices calling for change. In addition to the National Direct Care Partnership, the DCA is a founding member of the Eldercare Workforce Alliance and created the national Day of Dialogue.

The DCA’s National Direct Care Partnership is a forum for discussion among stakeholder organizations and individuals who recognize the urgent need to improve long-term care by improving direct-care jobs. This forum represents the diverse opinions of long-term care employers, workers, and consumers, as well as their friends, families and advocates.
 
We share ideas about polices and regulations that will improve direct care jobs, thereby helping ensure that our nation has an adequate, well-qualified direct care workforce. Our discussions focus primarily on national laws and policies but support state-based initiatives as well.
