072 Susan Stall: Advocacy for Community Development

September 23, 2020

Susan Stall highlights transformative experiences that shaped her path as a

Community Sociologist and advocate for women’s equity and empowerment and grass-roots

community development. While on the faculty at Northeastern Illinois University, Susan taught

multi-disciplinary courses such as Gender and the Built Environment, and directed student

service learning and internships in local communities. In ‘retirement,’ Susan serves as President

of Arbor West Neighbors, engaging older people in community issues such as creative housing

options. Most recently, Susan promotes talking across generations about racial injustice. She

also hosts a Salon on Women & Aging, recognizing that “aging is a big passage.”

 

"I am most interested in the invisible actions in communities that are transformative." - Susan Stall, Ph.D.
