Current Initiatives 

COVID-19 and Caregiving// The CSW recently called upon UCSF leadership to address challenges faced during COVID-19 by those in the UCSF community who are parents and caregivers – roles wherein responsibility falls disproportionately on women. In response to these concerns, the Chancellor’s office has convened a UCSF Child and Dependent Care Task Force to implement strategies to assist working families in the UCSF community.

This work is ongoing. More information about current UCSF initiatives to support parents and caregivers can be found at Campus Life Services: Family Services.
