Confronting Women's Caring: Challenges for Practice and Policy

Carol T. Baines

Patricia M. Evans

Sheila M. Neysmith

This article explores implications of the feminist perspective of women's caring for two major arenas in which social services and women's caring intersect: child welfare and "community" care for the frail elderly. It examines the concept of caring and considers its usefulness as an analytic framework that reveals the connections between the work women do in the home and as members of the "caring" professions and that incorporates the significance of women's caring. It then outlines the changes that are necessary to redress the current gender division of caring.
