She served as the 2020-2021 President of the Greater Washington Area Chapter, Women Lawyers Division of the National Bar Association (GWAC).
“Erinn has devoted her career to advancing civil rights and social justice, and she already has made a significant impact in the field, so it is wonderful to see her accomplishments and commitment to public service recognized by the Daily Record as a 2021 VIP honoree,” said Demelza Baer, director of Public Policy at the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. “All of us at the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law look forward to joining The Daily Record’s virtual celebration of Erinn and her fellow honorees on Sept. 22.”
