Worried about what the future may look like for your child with a disability? Come to hear three-time self-published author/Ms. Wheelchair Ohio 2023, Allison Boot talk about how people with disabilities can live equitable, happy lives.

Allison Boot, who has cerebral palsy, was recently crowned Ms. Wheelchair Ohio 2023 after a weekend-long event at the Mount Vernon Grand Hotel. Ms. Wheelchair Ohio is an advocacy- and education-based nonprofit organization that focuses on raising awareness about disabilities and the physical, attitudinal, and institutional barriers people with disabilities face - as well as illuminating the successes of women wheelchair users.
