Cara’s Rave Reviews

“Cara Filler holds the perfect recipe for addressing serious issues in a memorable, relevant way with today’s young people… Empathy, levity and authority and an unconditional pure interest in choices and safety of those in the audience. Our school was forever moved and changed by her message.”

“You finally conveyed to me and all of my peers why driving safely is so important. You have become my inspiration to work through tough times and that my past doesn’t define me. I will likely think about you daily, reminding me that my choices matter. You are such a role model.”
