THE FIRST MISS TEEN WHEELCHAIR USA IS WEARING HER CROWN AND ROLLING FAST!
Congratulations to the new Miss Teen Wheelchair USA, Emmy Rabalais! Emmy represented the state of Louisiana, and wowed the judges with her charm, her professionalism, and dedication to her platform!
Emmy was crowned on July 19, in Northeast Ohio in front of a live crowd after competing in several phases of competition, from private interviews to on-stage platform and marketing presentations. She’s 17-years-old, and a student at The Oaks Private School, speaks fluent French, and plans to become a Civil Rights Attorney.

Emmy has a long list of accomplishments and community service. As the very first Miss Teen Wheelchair USA she will work with the organization to grow the new program for teens. During her reign, she will continue to work with Give Kids The World Village in Florida, and become an active team member of the Ms. Wheelchair USA organization and The Dane Foundation.
“It was my dream to be Miss Teen Wheelchair USA and I did it!! I plan to wear my crown and pave the way for other young women in wheelchairs. We need to show the world that we are unstoppable,” Emmy explained.
