For more than 35 years, Roderick has worked with individuals from diversified backgrounds, cultures, and social circumstances, and his life-long mission has been to guide those injured and traumatized to reclaim their life’s purpose and meaning. 

Roderick is a teacher combating ignorance and apathy. He believes those who aspire to teach others need themselves to be a student committed to a life of learning and re-learning. Among Roderick’s teachers and mentors are: Dr. Robert Rhoton, Dr. Eric Gentry, Dr. Skip Moen, Robert Gorelik. His experiences include working with and advocating for children, young people, parents, educators, professional and non-professional caregivers; from juveniles in lockup at California’s Youth Authority in the early 1980s to more recently his work with the Arizona Department of Child Safety, the Arizona Department of Corrections, and multiple community service organizations serving at risk populations. Dr. Logan’s prolific platform integrated with his scholastic achievements uniquely qualifies him as an authority on trauma-informed care, principles for resiliency building, and pathways for navigating the optimum life.
