RESOURCES
browse, use & customize
We created and aggregated a host of relevant resources to help you as leave-goer, supporter or organizational leader navigate parental leave. These resources are geared towards office workers and mothers to start, but we hope to address a broader range of users (partners, managers, colleagues) and industries over time. If your organization has resources they'd be willing to share more broadly, please let us know! We'd love to post your content for others to help spread the good. Feeling overwhelmed by all the content? Not to worry. Sign up for our just-in-time email nudges and we'll send you the relevant resource when you need it.
