Logan Collins
Steering Committee
Logan Collins is a student of anthropology and public health at Georgia Southern University, where she has gained experience working in multiple areas of the substance use field, from prevention, harm reduction, active use, and recovery.
Logan is Georgia Southern’s student liaison for the Georgia Prevention Project’s College Partnership for Prevention (CPP). In this role, she facilities conversation with peers about substance use trends and preventing prescription pill misuse on campus. CPP also allows Logan to talk with her peers about harm reduction strategies if they continue to engage with substance use, which helps create a safer and more connected community on and off campus.
In addition to her work with CPP, Logan interns with Freedom Through Recovery (FTR), the local Recovery Community Organization in Statesboro. In this position, she has created and facilitated the organization's first program evaluation, which measured the impact FTR has on the peers who use its services and the broader Statesboro community. Currently, she is working to establish a cohesive internship program for FTR to expand its reach and foster a new generation of students who want to work in recovery spaces.
Finally, Logan is a researcher at heart and has spent the last three years conducting research with Georgia’s shrimping industry to understand the impacts of increasing rates of substance use and misuse on their crew members and the industry.
Logan will graduate with her B.A. in Anthropology in May of 2026. While she is currently unsure where her next steps will take her, she is determined to continue working in the realm of substance use and recovery as they pertain to rural communities, families, and labor practices.
