The Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption partnered with RTI International to survey employers across the United States to conduct the Best Adoption-Friendly Workplace survey.

The 15th annual 100 Best Adoption-Friendly Workplaces list includes a diverse group of organizations, representing 22 industries. Read the press release to learn more.

Participants were scored based on three criteria: financial reimbursement (45%), paid leave (45%) and the percentage of employees eligible for those benefits (10%). On average, employers that completed the survey offer $10,961 in financial reimbursement, which is up 7.9% from 2020. The average amount of paid leave is 7.69 weeks, holding steady from last year’s average.
