In today's episode of the Modern Adoption podcast, Erin & Jess talk with Allison Whalen, Founder & CEO of Parentaly - a company on a mission to improve the parental leave experience for everyone.
One of the first things we recommend prospective adoptive parents do when they decide to pursue adoption, is to ask about their employee benefits for family building and parental leave.
Unfortunately, a lot of family building benefits aren’t inclusive or don’t allow for adequate parental leave for families who are adopting.
As Allison mentions in today's episode, the best way to get your employer to step up their family building benefits game is to start a movement - so send them this episode and reach out to Allison at Parentaly or us at PairTree...we're happy to help.
For free templates, resources, and tips on how to ask your employer to add Parentaly to their benefits toolkit, visit their website and be sure to check out Allison's podcast, The False Tradeoff.
