Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption Celebrates Companies that are Industry Leaders in Adoption Benefits

Each year, the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption’s annual Best Adoption-Friendly Workplace list recognizes U.S. companies that support families growing through adoption. The annual survey is judged first on financial assistance and second on paid time off given to employees after they adopt. While not all of the companies that applied make the list, we appreciate all organizations that offer adoption benefits and support families.

Saving Business From Itself

The reputation of business hit an all-time low during the Great Recession and, arguably, it has never recovered. Mainstream voices now decry capitalism as a nefarious force that needs to be leashed. And yet capitalism is the only economic system that has proven to deliver growth, helping lift billions out of poverty and the only economic system that continues to create and maintain millions of jobs that keep the global economy running. So how do we fix it? How do we retain the powerful benefits that capitalism can bring and restore its reputation?
