Day 1: Photo Essay and Discussion - Women Lead the Way in Community Mobility

Date: 9/11/2019
Time: 3:30 PM - 4:15 PM
Location: Executive Dining Room

Session Description:
This session will be given as visual presentation; a photo-led display showcasing women in leadership positions at rural, small-urban, specialized and tribal transit operations across the United States. Women in leadership roles at these agencies stand in contrast with the heavily-male balance often found at large-urban systems. These photos highlight women in their transit facility, in the community and at meetings; as drivers and dispatchers, or any other important role they may play. Alongside the candid photos of the women, we'll be discussing our conversations with them - revealing information we learned and brief descriptions of their role. Following the presentation, there will be an opportunity to discuss the trends we found and any questions participants might have.
