CareForce is a roving outreach platform dedicated to advocating for domestic worker’s rights. Artist Marisa Jahn uses the co-opted visual language from comic books to frame care givers as self-empowered super heroes actively working to realize change and is currently touring the country in an outfitted 1967 Mercury Colon Park station wagon, engaging directly with domestic care providers and consumers. Through interactive performances, workshops, and educational materials, CareForce creates opportunities for mobilization in support of legislative reform and labor justice.
Nominated for the 3rd wave by Jenny Polak
