Strengthening the workforce through diversity for over 30 years.​

Founded in 1989, Briggs & Associates operates on the philosophy that “anyone who has the desire, has the ability to be successful in the workplace.” The company initially provided support to a few individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and later expanded to include services for people with mental health diagnoses. The focus has always been one person at-a-time, even throughout a period of tremendous growth. Over the course of thirty years, Briggs & Associates has developed and supported careers for over 8,000 people throughout Georgia. The true impact of this approach is immeasurable, as “building one successful life strengthens a whole community.” 

Briggs & Associates is now one of the largest supported employment agencies in the world, with expertise in developing positions in a wide variety of industries. The design is a win for individuals served and business leaders alike, as Briggs & Associates identifies need, helps with teaching tasks, and provides ongoing support to ensure long-term success. Briggs & Associates demonstrates that strengthening the workforce through diversity is “Just Good Business” and truly impacts an employer’s bottom-line.
