The introduction provides an overview of the book’s main themes and emphasizes its focus on Puerto Rican women’s activism. It begins by focusing on the life and work of Puerto Rican activist social worker Yolanda Sanchez, whose work demonstrates how Puerto Rican women used careers in social work as avenues for political engagement in both Puerto Rico and the United States. The section “Puerto Ricans, Citizenship, and Social Welfare” explores how, since granting US citizenship in Puerto Rico in 1917, Puerto Ricans have made political claims to social rights through organizing for full coverage under federal social welfare policy. The section “The Politics of Caring Labor in Puerto Rican Communities” considers how Puerto Rican women were political leaders in struggles over expanding social welfare benefits within Puerto Rican communities and the importance of examining social welfare within the context of labor histories that center gender.
