About the Center
ATLAS Autism Center is a dedicated therapy facility located in Gretna, specializing in providing essential support to children diagnosed with autism, specifically those aged 2 to 6. The core mission of ATLAS is to foster a nurturing environment that emphasizes consistent and efficient care, while building strong partnerships with families rooted in transparency and shared goals for each child's development. The center offers a range of therapeutic methodologies, including one-on-one Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy, group instruction, and specialized parent training programs designed to equip families with the knowledge and tools necessary for continued support at home. With a commitment to maintaining a low student-to-teacher ratio, ATLAS ensures personalized attention for each child, typically serving only 12-14 children at any given time. This focused approach not only enhances the quality of care but also cultivates lasting relationships between staff and families. The center's unique philosophy prioritizes stability and continuity, as many children remain enrolled until they reach school age. While there is an extensive waitlist due to high demand for services, ATLAS remains dedicated to supporting families on the Westbank by providing referrals to other facilities when needed.
