Changing Lives 

"I plan on successfully completing a training class for CDL drivers training.  I want to be able to live comfortably with a good paying job, and I believe I can do that with a CDL.  I want to be able to provide a better foundation for my family. I'm getting this certificate so I can help my family and myself."

The Women In Trucking Foundation is supported by the Women In Trucking Association, a 501(c)(6) membership organization with the mission to encourage the employment of women in the trucking industry, promote their accomplishments, and minimize obstacles faced by women working in the industry, including: 

  • Educate and raise awareness for women’s issues
  • Promote career opportunities for women in the industry
  • Improve conditions for women already working in the industry
  • Increase the number of women in leadership positions in the industry
  • Increase the number of women drivers
  • Serve as a resource about women working in the industry

The Women In Trucking Association was founded in 2007. In just a few short years, through the support of thousands of transportation-related companies, drivers and dedicated individuals, this organization has made significant strides in accomplishing its mission.
