Autumn Green, current titleholder, earned national recognition at the Ms. Wheelchair America competition, held August 18–24 at the Amway Grand Plaza in Grand Rapids, Michigan. She competed alongside 17 other women from across the country for the chance to represent wheelchair-mobile women in the United States.

After a week of competition, networking, and empowerment, Green returned home with new leadership skills, a nationwide support network, and a renewed drive to advocate for others. She was also honored with the Trailblazer Award, created by the judges to recognize a contestant who fearlessly pushes boundaries and drives meaningful, measurable change through her platform.

The annual event highlights both competition and advocacy, providing participants with opportunities to inspire, lead, and make an impact in communities nationwide. Green’s achievement underscores her dedication to leadership and advocacy for women who are wheelchair-mobile.
