Women Over 70: Aging Reimagined 072 Susan Stall: Advocacy for Community Development
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.
