Adoption & Foster Seminar
On October 6, 2022, Baylor was recognized on the Dave Thomas Foundation's 2022 Best Adoption-Friendly WorkplacesTM list. We were ranked No. 2 nationally among U.S. education institutions, behind only Yale and ahead of New York University, Emory University and Northwetern College. This recognition is given to education institutions that offer the best overall adoption and foster care benefits for faculty and staff through paid parental leave and financial assistance for adoption-related expenses. These adoption assistance and parental leave benefits not only align with our Christian mission, but they reflect our deep commitment to supporting and strengthening families by providing Baylor faculty and staff with a supportive work environment that helps their families flourish. In an effort to provide faculty and staff with information regarding adoption and foster care assistance and processes, we will host the following seminar:
