Kat Logan is the Associate Director of Allen Neighborhood Center. She started as an intern with the organization twelve years ago and has stayed with ANC ever since.

Kat holds a masters degree in community organizing social work with a focus in advocacy and racial equity and spent two years working with Black Lives Matter Michigan. Kat’s passion for fostering a sense of belonging, shared responsibility, and play is deeply rooted in cooperative living. For her, it’s all about getting to know your neighbors, about placemaking. It’s about spending time with people who are very different from yourself and coming together in the name of collective action. It’s why she’s chosen to live and work in this neighborhood for the last twelve years, and it’s what motivates her to create systems that help ANC to be more mission-aligned, data-driven, and neighbor-focused.

Kat lives on the Eastside with her partner, Megan. Her roots are in rural Appalachia and homesteading, and you can often find her hiking, gardening, foraging, or preserving foods.
