For 20 years, D&W Trucking Inc. has been a cornerstone of the logistics industry in Los Angeles, serving clients such as Los Angeles County Public Works and the Port of Long Beach. Based in Inglewood for the past eight years, the company faced a significant challenge: sourcing qualified Class A truck drivers committed to building a career.

To overcome this hurdle, D&W Trucking partnered with the Inglewood One-Stop and the INVEST program, which provided a steady stream of qualified driver referrals. Additionally, the company leveraged the Transitional Subsidized Employment (TSE) initiative, enhancing its ability to train and employ new drivers. Mr. Windom, the owner, values this partnership, recognizing its vital role in meeting staffing needs while supporting community growth.

Through this collaboration, D&W Trucking has successfully hired 18 justice-involved individuals as commercial truck drivers, offering them a chance to rebuild their lives. This initiative not only benefits the employees but also contributes positively to the Inglewood community.

Mr. Windom believes in the power of second chances and is committed to making a difference by providing employment opportunities to those seeking a fresh start. D&W Trucking exemplifies how businesses can drive social change while achieving operational success.
