Family Support
If you sometimes wish you had a back-up team to help you deal with the competing demands between life and work, you’re not alone. Each journey to parenthood is unique and every family has their specific needs, but they have one thing in common: they’re the most important thing. We want to give you some tips to make sure you take advantage of the resources you have to help you manage your family planning, or your day-to-day stuff – there’s more than you think!

Mom To Be

(Please note the Building Healthy Moms program replaced the Future Moms program as of January 2023.)
Already Have A Family
Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account (DCFSA) through Vitaflex
DCFSA can help families save a lot of time and money when it comes to paying for care. Money is set aside before taxes (so it lowers your taxable income), and you can use it for all kinds of care expenses, from child care and after school care programs, to preschool and summer day camp. If you take care of an elderly family member, you can also use the money for adult care facilities. To learn more about eligibility and qualifying expenses, please visit the DCFSA page.
