Benjamin Saylor is a disability and LGBTQAI+ advocate who works with disability advocacy organizations such as Tellin' Tales Theatre, Adapt Productions of Chicago, Little People of America, and others to spread acceptance and understanding through stories. Benjamin volunteers with many events through these organizations and others in Chicago, such as the Disability Pride Parade. While already a leader in some aspects, he hopes that through the Disability Lead Fellowship, he can learn to advocate for others on a larger scale and a more professional level.
