Meet the 2026 Re/Gen cohort: Kelsey Harder

Cradle Catholic to Clown, Kelsey is a working admin professional in NJ who spends her free time doing improv and in all aspects of community theater. From a young age Kelsey has had a deep connection with her faith, at one point having aspirations to be the first female pope. Since discovering her q***r identity and deconstructing Kelsey has been focused on what does it mean to call one's self Catholic and how can the Church be a place where all people can be truly welcomed. She believes that growing the church is not a matter of conversion but of opening more doors and focusing more on the mission of peace, love and justice.
