HISTORY

Three corporate executives, Dale Grant, Diane Weilgus and Paula Bailey, founded our company in 1997, to consult to America's largest companies about a promising untapped pool of labor---those economically disadvantaged workers who do not live in neighborhoods or know people to lead them to corporate America's front door. The bottom line was increasing bottom line results. But Grant Associates' business clients found other important bi-products: internal joy in changing people's lives, an outpouring of energy and ideas flourishing in a diverse workforce, and a public that is grateful for the company's contribution to community enrichment.

Today, under local, state and federal government employment and training contracts that serve people who are low income, have barriers to employment or who are simply unemployed as a result the economy, Grant Associates provides staffing services to more than 1000 private businesses, placing almost 150 workers each month. And, advising such businesses as JP Morgan Chase, Starwood Hotels, Aramark, Xerox, CVS Pharmacy and Toys R Us Grant Associates has helped establish public employment initiatives in more than twenty states.

We serve three masters. Our responsibility is to produce exceptional outcomes to government, our promise is to deliver world class staffing to business and our passion is to change the lives of the people who come through our doors.
