The Ian Logan Memorial Award
About the award
The Ian Logan Memorial Award was established in 1987 by the Provincial Advisory Committee on Child Abuse to recognize the tremendous contributions made by Sergeant Ian Logan. Sgt. Logan was a respected police officer, a child abuse consultant, and an advocate for children. He was the Coordinator of the Child Abuse Unit for the Winnipeg Police Service for many years. Sgt. Logan’s dedicated work on behalf of children has created a lasting legacy. As a leader in the field of child abuse/child maltreatment he was highly regarded within Winnipeg social services community.
He is remembered as a warm, understanding and caring individual who made the protection of children his priority. The Provincial Advisory Committee on Child Abuse has created the Ian Logan Memorial Award to be presented to honor his achievements and keep their memory alive.
The award will be presented to an individual who has made a significant contribution in the field of child maltreatment prevention, and who exemplifies the qualities which were so much a part of Sgt. Logan’s life: dedication to children, personal and professional discipline, and good citizenship.
