Summary, etc This applied research study is part of a collaborative effort by local government representatives, business leaders, and social work researchers to investigate workplace support for family needs. It is one of the first to report findings about family-friendly workplace policies and practices across different size and sector work organizations in one community. The prevalence and distribution of these policies and practices are investigated because they can enhance the quality of life for individuals and families and thus should be accessible to all members of the workforce. Findings from a sample of 88 small, medium and large work organizations within the private and public sectors reveal that many employers offer flexible work arrangements while few provide child care services; large organizations as well as organizations in the public or nonprofit sectors provide more work-family stress management benefits than smaller organizations or those in the for-profit sector; large organizations also provide more leave time and more dependent care services. Comparability with other studies, future research needs, and implications for community practice are discussed.
