Katie Miller

Katie is grateful to have worked for many years directly with youth in out-of-home placement and youth experiencing homelessness. A great deal of what she knows and what guides her work was developed from her direct service years. She credits the youth she was privileged to work alongside as her true teachers. They provided her with a depth of knowledge and insight that has shaped how she engages with others.  Subsequently she held several non-profit management and administrator roles at various agencies serving people experiencing homelessness.  In these roles she oversaw programming and staff development.

She now holds the position of Community Navigator for the Office of Violence Prevention in the Minneapolis Police Department. She is a proud Minneapolis resident and lives with her partner of 21 years and their two inquisitive and amazing children.
