Join Us for More Powerful Stories

In the words of Alice Wong, “Storytelling is a chance to know ourselves better, to really question who we are, where we've been, and who we want to be." 

Power is built through storytelling. When we elevate authentic stories, we can disrupt myths and build authentic connections. Finding the right words requires labor and vulnerability, but the results can be a catalyst for change. This November, following National Disability Employment Awareness Month, we’ll feature stories from three Disability Lead Members who are leading with their disability identity.
