We have established an organization in which people of African American descent, employed in all aspects of the Metropolitan Transit Authority can join together and communicate in a supportive environment.  As a member of the S.A.A.T.E, active participation is essential towards maintaining an organization that reflects our unity and strength.

We look forward to the future of the S.A.A.T.E being not only an enlightening informative experience for you as a member, but an exciting journey.

So put on your seat belt and enjoy the experience of being a member of the Society of African American Transit Employees.
