Too many people have to risk their job to care for a loved one, or put a family member at risk to keep a job. We’re made to feel that this is a personal problem, but it’s political – family values too often end at the workplace door. We need new workplace standards to meet the needs of real families today.
The result will be better individual and public health, and greater financial security for families, businesses and the nation.
Our coalitions represent a diverse, nonpartisan group of more than 1,000 grassroots organizations, ranging from restaurant owners to restaurant workers, faith leaders to public health professionals, think tanks to activists for children, seniors and those with disabilities. Family Values @ Work coalitions are active in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas, Vermont, Washington, Washington, D.C., and Wisconsin.
Formed in 2003, Family Values @ Work coalitions are winning. We’ve helped get paid sick days victories in San Francisco, Washington, D.C., Milwaukee, Seattle, and Portland as well as the state of Connecticut, family leave insurance laws in New Jersey and California, and paid parental leave in Washington state. These local and state wins are improving the lives of tens of thousands of working families and building national momentum for policies that value families at work.

Family Values for Life was birthed from our founder Alfreda Flowers’ passion and extensive experience with families. She provided daycare services for 18 years; worked in the St. Paul school system, at family resource centers, and homeless shelters; raised her eight children with Christian values; grown stronger through the loss of her husband; and has worked with families at her church for over 35 years.
Family Values for Life focuses its work on the entire family unit. By engaging both parents and children we can make a stronger, more sustainable impact on the family, and in turn, the entire community.

Federal Student Aid, a part of the U.S. Department of Education, is the largest provider of student financial aid in the nation. At the office of Federal Student Aid, our 1,200 employees help make college education possible for every dedicated mind by providing more than $150 billion in federal grants, loans, and work-study funds each year to help more than 15 million students pay for college or career school. We are proud to sponsor millions of American minds pursuing their educational dreams.
Federal Student Aid is responsible for managing the student financial assistance programs authorized under Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965. These programs provide grants, loans and work-study funds to students attending college or career school.
We ensure students and their families can benefit from these programs by:
• Informing students and families of the availability of the federal student aid programs and on the process for applying for and receiving aid from those programs.
• Developing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and processing more than 21 million FAFSA submissions each year;
• Accurately disbursing, reconciling, and accounting for all federal student aid funds that are delivered to students each year through more than 6,000 colleges and career schools;
• Managing the outstanding federal student loan portfolio and securing repayment from federal student loan borrowers;
• Offering free assistance to students, parents, and borrowers throughout the entire financial aid process; and
• Providing oversight and monitoring of all program participants—schools, financial entities, and students— to ensure compliance with the laws, regulations, and policies governing the federal student aid programs.
