Benefits like Family or Medical leave. It's time for a change!
What are our Paid Family & Medical Leave community sharing plans?
Paid Family & Medical Leave Community Sharing Plans allow Freelancers to earn an income if they get sick, hurt, or need to care for family. Whether you’re welcoming a new child, quarantined, isolated, or down and out with a medical condition, your income doesn’t need to suffer!

What is community sharing?
Inspired by the modern sharing economy, this cost-sharing model is an innovative, non-insurance Peer-to-Peer solution centering on Member-to-Member support.
In our community, Freelancers Union Members voluntarily support one another’s financial and physical health by sharing during times of loss of income due to family leave (Childbirth, Serious Illness of a close relative, and Covid-19 quarantine or isolation) and medical leave (severe illness and disability for oneself).

What our Members Say
”I live in a home with my parents and my kids! When my mother came down with Covid, I desperately needed to care for her and keep the kids away. My work hours suffered and this plan was a lifesaver!“.
”As a freelancer, Covary provided exactly what I needed. When my son was born, I received a 3-month salary without having to go through time-consuming verifications for lack of income“.
”Covary is much more affordable than traditional insurance. What’s more, they actually care about the community, and have our back when something happens.“
”I love working from home, so I can care for my kids. But a recent diagnosis means, I’ll need more time in treatments. Freelance Union’s plan helps me stay calm about my income and responsibilities while I take care of my health. At least I know I can pay my bills!“
Still hesitating? We'll help you decide!
