AAWTA Launches Youth Workforce Program at New Doraville Training Hub

DORAVILLE, Ga. - EntSun -- Doraville, GA — The African American Women Trucking Association (AAWTA) has announced the launch of its Future Forward Youth Supply Chain & Logistics Program, a workforce development initiative designed for youth ages 15–19. The program will begin on June 15th and will be hosted at AAWTA's new training hub, The Power Lab, located at 5269 Buford Highway, Doraville 30340.

The program is designed to introduce students to high-demand career pathways within trucking 101, logistics, and supply chain.
