It’s Thanksgiving week now, and despite the hardships and heartaches we have faced during most of this year, there is much for which to still be grateful.

Our ATU family has demonstrated true resilience and great care for each other, as we carry out our essential role in our communities. We acknowledge you for your dedication, sacrifices, and all you’ve helped us to accomplish- together.

We are extremely proud of this hard work, and because of that, we are confident of the better days that are to come.
