The McCall Behavioral Health Network is honored by the award and recognizes the contributions of its staff.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
TORRINGTON, Conn. – September 4, 2025 – The McCall Behavioral Health Network has been awarded a Connecticut Top Workplaces 2025 honor by Hearst Media Services, marking the organization’s eighth consecutive year receiving this distinction.
The list is based solely on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by Energage, LLC, an employee engagement technology partner. The confidential survey measures the employee experience across themes such as feeling respected and supported, being enabled to grow, and being empowered to execute, among others.
“Our people put their whole hearts into what they do,” said Maria Coutant Skinner, LCSW, President and CEO of the McCall Behavioral Health Network. “What makes this recognition especially meaningful is that it comes directly from our own staff. Their feedback affirms the commitment and pride we all have for creating an environment where people can find purpose in their work and a true sense of belonging. The motivation behind our mission comes from kindness and compassion, and the belief that every life is worthy of dignity and care. Everyone at McCall—staff and clients alike—play an integral role in the safe, welcoming, and judgment-free community that continues to grow.”
McCall is a nonprofit organization that provides programs and services that address substance use, mental health, and overall wellness. To be named a Top Workplace is a prestigious honor, and receiving this recognition eight years in a row is a testament to the strength of the McCall community. It reflects the way employees respect and support one another and the deep sense of unity they share in carrying out McCall’s mission to serve others. The award is both a source of pride and gratitude, reinforcing the organization’s belief that a compassionate, connected team can achieve remarkable things together.
“Earning a Top Workplaces award is a badge of honor for companies, especially because it comes authentically from their employees,” said Eric Rubino, Energage CEO. “That’s something to be proud of. In today’s market, leaders must ensure they’re allowing employees to have a voice and be heard. That’s paramount. Top Workplaces do this, and it pays dividends.”
