Why this matters to your family
When a therapy team feels supported, that support reaches your child.
Therapists who feel respected stay longer. They grow their skills. They bring their full attention to every session. Great Place to Work certification measures exactly this: employee trust, pride, and the health of an organization’s culture. Earning it for the fifth year in a row says something important about ATG: this is a place where people choose to stay.
Five years and counting
ATG first earned Great Place to Work certification in 2021. At the time, 83 of 114 employees responded to the survey. They named the five qualities that defined working at ATG: justice, support, collaboration, fairness, and respect.
Since then, ATG has grown to serve families across multiple locations in Illinois and Texas. The certification has renewed every year because those core qualities have held.
What the numbers show
Great Place to Work surveys employees anonymously and comprehensively. Here is what ATG’s team reported in the most recent survey:
- 88% of employees say ATG is a great place to work — compared to 57% at a typical U.S. company
- 96% feel they make a difference
- 94% feel good about the ways ATG contributes to the community
- 92% feel their work has special meaning
- 92% feel a sense of pride in what they accomplish
These are the people who work with your child every week.

What this means when you choose ATG
High employee satisfaction and strong clinical outcomes are connected at ATG by design.
When ATG’s therapists feel valued, they stay. When they stay, they develop deeper skills and build stronger relationships with the children they serve. Earning this certification five consecutive times means ATG has maintained that standard as it has grown. That consistency is what you are choosing when you choose ATG for your child.
