Lisa Wagner-Carollo, Development Associate, has worked with NALM since August of 2016. She is also the Founder and Executive Director of Chicago’s Still Point Theatre Collective. She created the company in 1993, motivated by a strong desire to combine ministry and theatre. Among many programs, Still Point conducts outreach with women in prison, and with women and men who have recently exited the prison system.

Lisa has performed in several plays for Still Point, including Haunted by God: The Life of Dorothy Day and To Pray Marvelously Well: The Spiritual Friendship of St. Edith Stein and St. Teresa of Avila (one-woman shows). In 2020, she co-produced the film None of Us Want to Stand Still, a documentary exploring better health care for adults with developmental disabilities. Lisa is a practicing Spiritual Director, and also published the book Above, Along, Inside, and Through, a spiritual memoir.
