Stronger Families. Stronger Workforce.
We help companies improve retention, reduce burnout, and strengthen performance by addressing the hidden impact of long-distance work on employees’ families.
Navigating The Distance, Together
When employees work away from home, the strain doesn’t stay at work. It follows them into their relationships, their rest, and ultimately, their performance.
Long Distance Family provides a structured, evidence-informed app that helps employees and their families stay connected, navigate time apart, and return to work more focused, regulated, and ready to perform.
If your company relies on employees who spend extended time away from home, we help you support your workforce where it matters most.
The Missing Piece in Workforce Mental Health
Most workplace mental health strategies focus on the individual.
But for employees working away from home, the greatest source of stress often lives outside the workplace — within their family relationships.
Partners carrying the full weight of home life
Strained communication and emotional disconnect
Difficult transitions when workers return home
Limited true rest during time off
This doesn’t just impact families — it impacts:
Productivity
Focus
Safety
Retention
When the home front is unstable, the workforce is too.
Our Four Solutions
1. The Work Away From Home Family Wellness Toolkit
A practical guide for employers supporting employees and families navigating time and distance apart. Most organizations already have wellness resources. The challenge is making those resources relevant to the realities of employees whose work regularly takes them away from home.
The goal isn’t another benefit.
It’s a better understanding of the people your workforce is asking to live with distance.
2. Working Away From Home: The Family Wellness Webinar
Employee wellness doesn't happen in isolation.
Work away from home can provide meaningful careers, financial stability and opportunities. But it can also place unique demands on family relationships, routines and well-being.
This prerecorded educational webinar helps employees and families understand those challenges—and gives them practical strategies they can begin using immediately.
Family wellness doesn't have to begin with a crisis.
Sometimes it begins with a conversation.
3. Family Wellness Workforce Pulse
Don't assume you know what your workforce needs. Ask them.
Organizations invest significant resources into employee wellness and benefits, but how often do they ask employees what their work arrangement actually means for their families?
The Family Wellness Workforce Pulse is an anonymous employee survey designed to help organizations understand the family and well-being experiences of employees who regularly work away from home. Your organization will receive an report with workforce findings and practical recommendations.
From assumption to insight.
Your workforce may be telling you something you don’t currently have a way to see.
4. The Family Support Resource Kit
Practical resources for the people living the experience.
Sometimes the most valuable support is something a family can pick up and use today.
The Family Support Resource Kit provides employees and families with accessible, practical resources addressing some of the most common challenges associated with work away from home.
Support is more effective when people know it's there and know how to use it.
