The King County Vehicle Maintenance Community Connection (VMCC) group is building community among the women, trans women, and nonbinary people in Metro Transit’s Vehicle Maintenance (VM) Division.  

The mission is to build a sustainable and structured support group where measurable outcomes build community among the women in VM to deconstruct loneliness. The group seeks to understand what it would take to support the current women in VM, and prepare to support future women hired into VM. The group also provides education about the resources available for personal and professional growth. Together, members in the group develop a sustainable, positive workplace culture built on equity and diversity within VM, and foster a safe confidential space of sisterhood to share, grow and support one another over time. The VMCC also partners with other King County groups and departments to achieve this vision.

Join the VMCC in our upcoming pilot meetings for a place to belong:

• Monday, Nov. 6, from 9 to 10:50 a.m. (morning session) at Ryerson Base, 2nd floor classroom
• Thursday, Nov.16 from 9 to 10:50 p.m. (evening session) at Atlantic/Central, 2nd floor classroom
