ABOUT CARE (Companies As Responsive Employers)

Download the 2008 CARE Awards Sponsorship form.

Businesses play a key role in strengthening families and communities through the adoption of family-supportive workplace policies. The CARE initiative began in 1992 in response to a growing number of counseling clients who cited workplace stress as a major factor in their family difficulties. In an effort to curb this alarming trend, Northern Virginia Family Service enlisted the support of the business community. The result was the CARE Advisory Committee.

The Advisory Committee developed the CARE Awards as a mechanism for effecting change where problems often start - in the workplace. Each year the CARE Awards are given to employers in Northern Virginia that provide exceptionally family-friendly workplace policies and benefits for their employees.
