Missed work & family leave

Options to protect your job and income while you care for your child.

Time off to care for an injured child can feel impossible to afford — and impossible to avoid. Know what you’re entitled to before you need it.

Look into your state’s family leave laws, your employer’s policies, and whether the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) applies to your situation. Even a short conversation with HR can surface options you didn’t know existed.
