We hire exceptional people.

We maintain a positive attitude and positively influence those around us. We are intrinsically motivated to take initiative and improve our performance. We are self-managers who are empowered to take responsibility for our own success and happiness.

We make a difference.

We are compassionate, helpful and respectful. We enthusiastically provide the best products and comprehensive services possible. We go to extraordinary lengths to improve the lives of the children and families who are referred to us.

Our culture is cooperative.

We maintain an environment that is informal, friendly and fun. We acknowledge what we don't yet know and collaborate to problem-solve and learn. We welcome healthy debate, but once a decision is made, we all support the consensus.

Our culture is participatory.

We communicate openly, honestly and directly. We are all responsible for our mission, the stewardship of resources, and the success of our organization. We practice participatory management by encouraging questions and suggestions from all staff on any topic.

Our culture is empowering.

We identify and utilize the strengths of each staff member to help ensure job satisfaction and success. We eliminate the need for bureaucracy and hierarchy by holding ourselves and each other accountable. We provide staff with the greatest degree of flexibility possible because we value a healthy work/life balance.

We are Children's Therapy Center!
