Today's episode is with our very own Ericka Davis, who by the time our episode airs, has graduated her program with Western Washington University and earned her bachelor's degree in Human Services.  She fulfills the Opioid Awareness Middle School Program Lead role with the CHAN Project, and she comes on today's episode to share her story of what brought her to intern with the CHAN Project, remain with us through a full year of internships, and to stay on as a Lead Volunteer seeing our Middle School Program through.

Ericka's story starts with being born from a biological parent who used while Ericka was in utero, who then chose to put Ericka up for adoption and falsify papers, therefore misinforming her adoptive parents of any possible fetal substance or alcohol issues.  Upon losing her grandmother at a very early age, and succumbing to self medicating options for numbing the grief and future pain, Ericka finds herself on a long journey through ups and downs that bring even the strongest individual to their knees.  She shares of her highs and lows, and why she joined our team and remains a strong part of the CHAN Project and why she chose to share her story on the CHAN Podcast.

We hope you'll share in her story and gain insight from it.
Namaste'
Ericka and Heather, and the CHAN Family
