Sixth straight year that Citizens has received
the honor, #5 overall
For the sixth year in a row, Citizens Bank’s commitment to
helping colleagues build or add to their families through adoption
has been recognized by the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption.
Citizens ranked third overall among financial service companies and
fifth overall among all companies recognized by the foundation.
This is the 10th year Citizens has been named to the list.
Citizens is proud to offer adoption-related assistance to both
colleagues and customers. For colleagues, the company offers both
financial assistance —as much as $23,400 toward eligible adoption
expenses and fees -- and up to one week of paid leave per adoption.
For customers, Citizens provides financing solutions for families
who plan to adopt children through a unique partnership with the
National Adoption Foundation.
“We’re honored to receive this recognition for a tenth time, as
we continue to assist our colleagues who have decided to adopt,”
said Susan LaMonica, chief human resources officer, Citizens Bank.
“Adoption is a rewarding experience for all involved, and being
able to support our colleagues in establishing their families is
another way we are helping them reach their potential.”
Adoption-Friendly Workplaces are determined by an analysis of
financial assistance and paid leave available to families who
adopt, based on surveys completed by employers. Breakout lists are
available noting America’s top 100 adoption-friendly employers, the
top 10 by size, and the leaders in each industry.
