Balancing Act’s Resource Hub

Tools to develop parent and caregiver support within an arts workplace.

You’ll find downloadable policy templates, how-to guides, sample forms, communications, case studies and more! Developed and shared by Balancing Act’s Level UP! Partners.

Want to create a caregiver policy? Try out on-site childcare for a concert? Create an artist parent residency?

These resources are designed to demystify the process and make it easier for organizations of all sizes and scopes to implement caregiver support.

Resources from our Level UP! Partners

Each resource was carefully developed by a Level UP! Partner as it pertained to their pilot project. The Project Field Notes document is an overview of their pilot learnings – processes, challenges, successes – while all others are pilot-specific templates, forms, and other applicable documentation of their projects.
