Adoption Assistance
Nemours provides adoption assistance benefits to full- and part-time benefits-eligible associates after the completion of the 90-day evaluation period. Nemours will reimburse full-time associates for eligible adoption expenses up to the IRS maximum and 50% of the IRS maximum for part-time associates. Assistance is limited to three adoptions per family. Most expenses directly related to the adoption are reimbursable. Eligible expenses include application fees, home studies, placement fees and travel expenses. Additional information is available in our adoption assistance guidelines.

Note you must be eligible and employed by Nemours prior to the birth of the child. To learn more, contact Alight online or by calling 866.693.0064.
