Now more than ever we need to tap into our Suburban Warrior mindset and you have found the perfect podcast to feel ignited and empowered!!!In this episode, I sit down with Maria Stroup, Impact's Vibrant Visionary. With her extensive experience as a fierce advocate for young people and their families, Maria has devoted her personal and professional life to service-learning and leadership development in teens. Since receiving her Masters from Princeton University (yeah, she’s smart too!), Maria has worked in both educational and faith-based settings for over 30 years. She has exemplified a commitment to igniting in others an ethical engagement for the common good. As a seasoned program director, teacher, and pastor, Maria has thoughtfully integrated robust service-learning initiatives into diverse settings through the creation of individualized service programs for youth, opportunities for authentic dialogue and community building, and sustainable urban-suburban partnerships. Maria most recently served as the Director of Community Life and Service Learning for high school students at The Shipley School, an independent, coeducational, college-preparatory day school.As Vibrant Visionary, Maria is responsible for continuously refining the Impact mission. She works tirelessly to build partnerships with urban and suburban nonprofits and the local schools and community organizations Impact serves. Curriculum development, teaching, and group facilitation are among her primary objectives. Additionally Maria will create meaningful service trips for students and their families and arranges the implementation of programs – including programming, classes, workshops, lectures, and other activities – which build upon the mission of the Impact Center.
