Keynote Speaker: Carey Cummins

Carey Cummins is the most severely injured survivor of the deadliest drunk-driving crash in U.S. history. At age 14, she was among the passengers on a school bus that was struck head-on by a drunk driver traveling the wrong way on an interstate highway. The devastating crash claimed the lives of 27 of the 60 people aboard the bus.

Carey sustained third-degree burns over more than 60% of her body and severe fourth-degree burns to her right leg, which ultimately required amputation below the knee. Today, she walks independently with a prosthetic leg.

Determined to build a meaningful life after tragedy, Carey earned a college degree and became a registered nurse. She later co-produced the documentary Impact: After the Crash, which chronicles the lasting effects of the crash and is available on Amazon Prime.
