Georgia Works! is a nonprofit organization based in Atlanta, Georgia, that combines workforce development with a staffing model to assist homeless men in achieving self-sufficiency. The organization runs programs focused on personal development, good habits, work ethic, and character, aiming to reduce homelessness, recidivism, and dependency while enabling independent living. A distinctive feature is its role as a staffing agency that places participants with companies across the Atlanta area, providing practical employment opportunities and helping the program sustain itself through ongoing work relationships. The organization also pursues partnerships to expand its reach, including collaborations that bring its programs to additional communities and populations, such as women in DeKalb and at the Oakhurst Center for Community. Recent developments include office expansion in Atlanta to a new headquarters location and continued partnerships with community organizations.
