Ms. Wheelchair Kansas, Inc.
Ms. Wheelchair Kansas, Inc. annually selects an adult, teen, and youth titleholder, who are wheelchair mobile, that successfully advocate, educate, and empower all people on a state level.
This organization provides opportunities for women, teens, and young girls who are wheelchair mobile to be recognized, celebrated, and have their voices amplified! Ms. Wheelchair Kansas, Inc. is a leadership and empowerment organization. It is not centered on a beauty contest, but rather a competition that emphasizes the inner beauty, strength, and passion of those who participate. The organization is much more than just a competition. It starts with a competition, but then builds throughout the year as our titleholders work to educate people in Kansas and break down stereotypes. Ms. Wheelchair Kansas, Inc. is made up of three programs: the Ms. program, Junior Miss program, and the Little Miss program. With varying ages involved, it provides the perfect opportunity for mentorship as well. Ms. Wheelchair Kansas, Inc. is a sisterhood, a platform, and a tool for empowerment and leadership!
