Welcome to Safer Stops:
Driving Safety and Wellness Forward

Your safety and wellness is our concern

A Public-Private Partnership

Truck Driver Safety and Wellness Symposium

The Safer Stops Association is at the forefront of a vital mission—ensuring the safety, health, and well-being of the backbone of our economy: truck drivers. We recognize that trucking is more than just a job; it’s a way of life. Yet, every day, drivers face mounting challenges that impact not just their work but their overall physical, mental, emotional, and financial well-being.

At Safer Stops, we are committed to real solutions—not just discussions—aimed at improving the everyday lives of truck drivers. Our approach is holistic, addressing the systemic issues that make life on the road tough, from access to healthcare and mental health support to better rest stop infrastructure and financial security.

Our Mission

We believe that safer, healthier drivers lead to a safer, stronger industry. Through innovative collaborations, industry partnerships, and targeted initiatives, we are working to:

Expand access to healthcare by bringing more clinics and wellness facilities to major trucking routes.
Provide mental health support through both in-person counselors and automated, private digital resources for drivers who need assistance without face-to-face consultations.
Advocate for systemic change by addressing rest stop safety, working conditions, and financial stability challenges that drivers experience daily.
Foster partnerships with organizations that share our vision for a safer, healthier, and more sustainable trucking industry.

A Future of Safety, Support, and Sustainability

Our work is just beginning, but the momentum is growing. Through collaboration, technology, and industry-wide commitment, we aim to redefine truck driver wellness—not as an afterthought, but as a priority.

This platform is a resource, a network, and a movement dedicated to creating real change for those who keep our world moving. Together, we can build a future where every driver has access to the support, safety, and wellness they deserve.
