For employers

Bereavement leave ends. Grief does not.

Your employee comes back carrying a loss and a second job: the estate, the accounts, the calls. LumenUs takes the second job, so returning to work can mean returning.

  • Support that begins where bereavement leave ends
  • Carries the estate, the accounts, the calls
  • Free for every family

Bring LumenUs to the people you serve

The foundation is free for every family.

Current state of care

Leave ends. The work of loss does not.

Three or four days, then the heaviest work of an employee's life, carried alone. No benefit in the standard stack is built for that.
