Legislative and administrative efforts are underway in Mexico City to expand and formalize caregiving support systems. Initially, the Mexico City Congress reviewed a proposal by Deputy Rebeca Peralta to amend the Care System Law. This initiative sought to grant official caregiver status to the families of incarcerated individuals, ensuring they receive priority access to existing care provisions.

Following these legislative discussions, the city expanded its care framework through both public and private sector actions. Mayor Clara Brugada Molina announced the establishment of the city’s first Council of Caregivers, a participatory body designed to strengthen public policy. Additionally, the city inaugurated the Angela Davis House of the 3Rs of Care to promote the redistribution of care responsibilities. In the private sector, business leaders held a summit focused on the theme “Caring is sustainable business,” discussing how corporate responsibility in childcare can enhance long-term productivity.
