Unfolding at work

Beyond the Birth Announcement Adoption reimbursement and parental leave are a start. But the journey — for adoptive parents, adoptees, and all those connected to adoption — doesn't end at placement. Unfolding at Work equips companies with a mindfulness and wellbeing app, education, and workplace recommendations that embed psychological safety into culture and belonging efforts.

“Being an adoptee used to make me feel insignificant and less worthy as a person, but that all changed recently when I started to connect with other adoptees.”

-Dave, Adoptee
