Publisher's Synopsis
This comprehensive study, from The Center for American Progress and Maria Shriver, examines a social transformation unfolding right now. For the first time in our nation's history, one-half of all U.S. workers are women, and mothers are the primary breadwinners or co-breadwinners in two-thirds of American families, also for the first time. The report examines the impact of this sea change on government, business, men, heathcare, faith-based organizations and more. It's intended to ignite a national conversation and push for change that helps all Americans as these issues are relevant for women, for men, for children, for employers, for all sectors.
