Barb Schechtman (pictured above with fellow SuperShero Enid Vazquez) inducted into the Love Superhero Hall of Gratitude in February 2014 for her career spanning both Family Planning and HIV Treatment & Prevention. She stands above taking notes (as any great leader does!) at a town hall meeting in Chicago, Illinois as a group of stake holders brainstorm about integrated sexual and reproductive health for HIV-affected individuals. Shazam! Life comes full circle. Lucky for us!
About the Love Superhero Hall of Gratitude!
“The plain fact is that the world does not need more successful people, but it does desperately need more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers, and lovers of every kind. It needs people who live well in their places. It needs people of moral courage willing to join the fight to make the world habitable and humane.” David Orr
I deeply admire those who "live well in their places." The ordinary and the unsung who offer to the world the very best parts of themselves without expectation. This is a beautiful expression of love in her calm, persistent, generous manner - offering a ripple of change (a metamorphosis) to the world. Inductees to the Love Superhero Hall of Gratitude are caped in recognition of their contributions to a love-filled world.
