  • I have spent many years working with youth and communities through direct service programs. This inspires me to promote the success and viability of substance abuse prevention.
  • I believe all youth, families, and communities have the right to healthy environments and that youth are essential to creating healthy communities for themselves and others.
  • My personal experience has motivated me to support and showcase the successful benefits of substance abuse prevention activities for youth, families, and communities.

Erika is delightful to work with, efficient, knowledgeable and kind.”
