Share Your Story: Part-Time Worker Denied Unemployment Insurance

We are gathering stories of women who live in the target states who have been denied unemployment insurance because they work part-time or because they left their job due to compelling family reasons (domestic violence or sexual abuse, to care for a sick family member, or to relocate with a spouse who has found a job in another area). Are you a part-time worker who was denied unemployment insurance benefits? Did you spend the majority of your time in your last job as a part-time employee and are now looking for another part-time job? If you were rejected from receiving unemployment insurance because of your part-time status, please share your story. Your story will help make the case for reforming the law in your state.
