In 2013 she then became the Director of Prevention for Linn, Benton, and Jones County. While at ASAC, Erin worked on community policy as well as provided trainings to businesses, schools, and the community on topics such as effective substance use prevention, related strategies, Emerging Drug trends, specific opioid related topics such as Naloxone use.

In December of 2019, Erin left ASAC and started her current role as the Director for the Mental Health Access Center in Linn County. Ering provides leadership in the implementation and coordination of services for people with urgent or crisis behavioral health needs including both mental health and substance use disorder crises. Erin believes the Mental Health Access Center will write a new story for the community by providing both services, in tandem, for those in need.
