Family-Focused Benefits: Adoption & fertility support
Growing your family is a meaningful journey - and we're here to support you every step of the way. Whether you're considering adoption or seeking fertility treatment, our benefits are designed to provide financial assistance, expert guidance, and compassionate care.
adoption assistance Program
We're proud to support employees expanding their families through adoption. The Adoption Assistance Program is designed to ease the financial burden of adoption by offering reimbursement for eligible expenses.
eligibility
All active, full-time regular employees working 30 or more hours per week are eligible. An Eligible Child for adoption is any child who:
- Has not attained the age of eighteen (18) before the adoption is finalized or is physically or mentally incapable of self-care even if over the age of eighteen (18)
- Is not the child of the employee's spouse or domestic partner. Adoption of a stepchild or relative is not an Eligible Child for purposes of the Adoption Program
benefit
The Adoption Program offers a one-time reimbursement to employees of up to $10,000 (lifetime maximum) for Eligible Adoption Expenses. Eligible Adoption Expenses incurred can be submitted for reimbursement after you have been approved to participate in the Adoption Program and after the adoption of the Eligible Child is final.
If you're planning or in the process of adopting, we encourage you to review the program overview and reach out to HR Services with any questions.
