Chief Operating Officer, Hope Cooperative
Erin became the CEO of Hope Cooperative in 2016 after serving as the agency’s first Development Director for a period of three years.

In 2008 she co-founded and served as Executive Director for a non-profit substance abuse treatment program for teens in Placer County. After successfully merging that program into a larger non-profit, Erin found her niche in the non-profit world.
