Made with Care

About the Substack

There are many policy experts on the care crisis -- and I love them all. I'm a culture expert on the care crisis. Join me in unpacking all the ways our culture devalues parenting and caregiving, and what the world would would like if we cared about care.

About Elissa Strauss

Believe parenting and caregiving is a wild, meaty and profound ride that men ignored forever. Wrote the book "When You Care," in which I dig into why we don't value care, and what the world would look like if we did. Subscribe to "Made w/ Care."
