Steve Hall joined ERUUF in 2013, shortly after he and his wife, Susan Green, relocated from Charlotte. Steve had a long career in public education, which began with teaching 5 years in a high poverty school in Brooklyn, NY. He soon realized that addressing the profound moral and educational inequities in the schools where he worked was his passion and his professional mission. Toward that end, he earned his MS in curriculum design and pursued training and licensure in school administration. Steve went on to serve many years as a special services coordinator and eventually found his ultimate calling as a principal, working over 20 years turning around underperforming schools in Charlotte, NC. Years of successful impact in that role led him to be offered a position training urban school principals for a national organization.

Steve is a life-long spiritual seeker and has studied with a number of spiritual teachers. He has enjoyed using the opportunity of retirement to become a certified executive coach, volunteering to serve non-profit leaders throughout the Triangle. At ERUUF he has served on the Adult Programs Team, Leadership Development Team, and currently, the Committee for the Evaluation of Ministry. He has been in and led chalice circles and designed and co-coordinated the 2023 congregational read of the book “Centering: Navigating Race, Authenticity and Power in Ministry.”
