African American Women In Trucking

African American Women In Trucking Hello and welcome to African American Women Trucking Association support group. Please visit our website for more.

We are a non profit 501c3 supporting African American Women in the trucking industry. Once upon a time female truckers were far and few in this industry, but now you can't look up in one of these trucks on the road ways today and not see a female behind the wheel. Not only are females entering the industry daily, but more and more of those are African American. We women make up 5.4 percent of the

truckers in this industry w/ African American women being over one half of 1 percent. This organization is to help reach out to not only those of us already in the industry, but to help those wanting to enter, that may have doubts and or fears. We are many and growing by fhe numbers, so please share you experiences and let's keep moving forward with a strong presence in this industry.
