Supporting CDC Employees,
Contractors, and
Fellows
The CDC Mutual Aid Network was established in early 2025 by members of the CDC community. It was formed in direct response to the sudden and widespread layoffs at the CDC, aiming to support and uplift those affected.
The Network is a collaboration between CDC Workers, The CDC Alumni and Friends network, Fired But Fighting, the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) Local 2883, and the Family Support Center.
The resources on this site have been curated by the CDC Mutual Aid Network.
How the Network helps:
Sharing Resources: We provide essential guidance on navigating unemployment, financial planning, mental health, job boards, and other critical needs.
Financial Assistance: Through our Mutual Aid Assistance Fund, we offer direct financial support to colleagues impacted by Reductions in Force (RIFs), contract terminations, and furloughs.
The CDC Mutual Aid Network is open to all CDC workers, including government employees, fellows, and contractors.
How Does My Donation Make an Impact?
Your contribution—big or small—will have a direct impact on fired CDC workers. Whether it's covering groceries, rent, or medical bills, every dollar helps a fired CDC worker get back on their feet.
$50 can help cover needed prescriptions
$75 can help pay the electrical or water bill for the month
$100+ can make a difference towards buying groceries or paying the rent
More than 99 cents of every dollar given will go straight to those in need. Your gift is tax deductible to the maximum extent allowed by law.
The Family Support Center's Federal Tax ID: 58-1979047
