This week, the Rotary Club of Atlanta West End welcomes Quasandria Curry, Executive Director of Westside Works and a longtime practitioner in community-centered workforce development. An Atlanta native, Q brings more than two decades of experience supporting individuals and communities through education, counseling, and employment pathways designed to meet people where they are.

Q holds degrees in psychology and community counseling and is a Certified Anger Management Specialist. Her career has spanned substance use treatment, court-mandated counseling, adolescent residential care, trauma recovery, and vocational services for individuals facing significant barriers to employment. This breadth of experience informs her practical, human-centered approach to workforce systems.

Since assuming leadership of Westside Works in 2021, Q has led a significant expansion of place-based workforce initiatives on Atlanta’s Westside. Under her direction, the organization has built high-demand career pipelines, launched regional digital navigation and upskilling services, and strengthened collaboration among residents, employers, and community partners. Her work demonstrates how disciplined collaboration and equity-focused design can translate opportunity into durable outcomes for individuals and neighborhoods alike.
