Angie Erickson started in the field of youth work in the early 2000s as a volunteer in high school. After college, Angie worked with the YWCA Minneapolis Girls Inc. programs for six years, gaining experience in program development and staff training. While it was a dream job, an opportunity to relocate to northern Minnesota came in 2017. Now, as Director of Outreach at North Homes Children and Family Services in Grand Rapids, MN, Angie wears a number of hats and enjoys a wide variety of activities within her role. Angie is a high ropes course facilitator, oversees marketing and their agency internship program, is developing a community advisory board, and supports internal staff trainings.
In her spare time, Angie loves to play drums and go exploring with her family. She is active in her community and volunteers on the Itasca County Family YMCA board as well as the City of Grand Rapids Human Rights Commission. She also loves to read.
