Leon Osborne, C.E.O. Osborne Wood Products

"Osborne Wood Products has thrived under the leadership of the Stephens County government, and are so appreciative of the support and assistance of the officials at SCDA who have contributed to our success. We were very impressed with the video that SCDA put together about a couple of millennials employed here at Osborne, which was an informative and inspiring showcase about millennials in the manufacturing industry. We value the great people in our community and work hard to invest in their welfare through supporting educational and community development programs. Osborne Wood Products is proud to partner with the Stephens County Development Authority and local businesses to help make Stephens County a great place to work and live."

Doug Hitchon, Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, ASI Southeast

"ASI Southeast is proud to be a part of the economic success in Georgia and especially Toccoa-Stephens County. The County and City government are strong partners to our business and the leadership of the Stephens County Development Authority works for the citizens to establish itself as one of the best in the state of Georgia. We value the relationships and environment of support we have here. We look forward to continued growth in Toccoa."

Stephen Wallace, Manufacturing Manager at ASI Southeast

"SCDA is a tremendous advocate for workforce development and for creating meaningful connections between our schools and local industry. From supporting Work-Based Learning opportunities to helping expose every eighth-grade student in our community to local career opportunities through industry tours, they are helping students understand that successful careers can begin right here in Stephens County.

That partnership between our school system, SCDA, and local industry is a recipe for building a strong, sustainable workforce. Students gain exposure and opportunity, employers gain a stronger talent pipeline, and our community benefits when young people can build successful careers close to home. What also sets SCDA apart is that their commitment does not end once a company chooses Stephens County. They continue listening to and advocating for existing industry, helping address workforce challenges, housing needs, and other barriers that affect our ability to attract and retain employees. They make the needs of the businesses already invested here feel every bit as important as recruiting the next one.

That long-term commitment to our students, our workforce, and our existing industries is what makes the Stephens County Development Authority such an important partner in the continued success of our community."
