About Us

Greetings from Iowa CareGivers

We will not rest until all who work in direct care receive the education, compensation, and respect they need and deserve; all Iowans receive the care and support they require; and, all family caregivers have the support and education they need to fill their important roles.

Di Findley

Di Findley, Executive Director and Founder.

Join us in our fight for good direct care jobs and good care.

“Relentlessly Vigilant…We Will Not Rest…”

 

Founded in 1992

In 1992, Iowa CareGivers was founded by Di Findley, a former nurse aide, with little more than a garage sale princess telephone, a Macintosh computer with a 12-inch screen, and a desire to bring a voice and face to those who work in the field of direct care.  Having worked as a nurse aide for 13 years, she understood the need then and understands the issues even more today!

Call to Iowans

Join us in our efforts to enhance family caregiver supports and the earning capacity, educational opportunities, and overall status of this vitally important sector of our workforce.
