Later this month, Alliance for Research in Chicagoland Communities (ARCC) staff member, Ariel Thomas Sansing will be leaving Northwestern University to take on a new community leadership opportunity. We celebrate Ariel's many contributions to ARCC and to community engagement and health equity at Northwestern and throughout Chicagoland. She has been a true example and leader of relationship building and centering community leadership and expertise. Because of her contributions and work, ARCC is stronger, more engaged, more intentional, and more authentic. ARCC is grateful to learn and grow from Ariel's leadership over the last three years. We congratulate and thank her for all she will continue to do for our Chicagoland communities! Click here for some ARCC memories of Ariel and share your own wishes and memories.

ARCC will begin the hiring process for a new ARCC staff position soon. Inquiries can be sent to ARCC@northwestern.edu.
