Katie MacDonald
Health Educator

(269) 364-2146
[email protected]

In her junior year of high school, Katie recalls completing a personality test that indicated she should pursue a "career" in volunteerism.  She laughed, but knew this was a result of her passion for serving the community and high empathy for others. 

After receiving a degree in Community Health Education from WMU, Katie immediately found her professional "home" working as a Health Educator for Prevention Works.  In this role she enjoys developing programs and strategies that educate and empower community youth to make healthy choices and reach their full potential.  She is determined to make Kalamazoo a place where our youth do not just live, they thrive.

When she is not at Prevention Works, Katie can usually be found planning weekend getaways, playing board games, fishing or listening to comedy radio. 

What "tool" helps you get the job done?
A LIGHT BULB

​At Prevention Works we empower youth and families to illuminate their path towards a healthier tomorrow.   Using group discussions, interactive learning and skill building techniques, we are able to shed light on healthy choices.  Similar to a light bulb, it is my job to help schools and community partners “see” which prevention programs are best fit for their organization and light the way for a team of Program Facilitators through training and management to best equip them for their role.
