Out of every storm there is a rainbow.
Stephanie’s dream home literally came crashing down on her in March of 2012 when a tornado ripped through the area. As this happened, she shielded her two young children with her body. Her legs were crushed but because of her heroic actions, Stephanie's children were - amazingly - unscathed. She lost both legs and her life was forever changed. Stephanie has become symbolic for survival and overcoming adversity.
Since the accident, speaker Stephanie Decker has been featured on The Today Show, The Ellen Degeneres Show, ABC World News Tonight as “Person of the Week”, USA Today, USA Weekend, and People Magazine. Stephanie has used her story to bring awareness for the Stephanie Decker Foundation, which supports two main causes: children with prosthetics and accessibility to cutting-edge prosthetic products.
