A project of Better Life Lab
At the Better Life Lab, we track care innovation at the state, local, and community levels—from early childhood to end of life. Our research and storytelling follow new ideas and policies in all aspects of care, from child care and home care to adult day care centers, death doulas, and social prescribing. We also help fuel the momentum for state-level child care legislation, like Vermont’s Act 76 or DC’s Pay Equity Fund.
