Erin Frasier, who is running for state representative for Legislative District 19, was my WorkFirst case manager at Grays Harbor College and helped me navigate through my college experience.

She was always supportive, professional and kind to me and all the students who knew her. Life gives us difficult situations sometimes, and Erin always had a box of Kleenex and a willingness to point me in the direction of hope. For every barrier to success I encountered, Erin worked with me to find a solution.

It is because of people like her that I was able to go from living at the women and children’s shelter to being a registered nurse in our community. I am only one of many … Erin has touched. How many people found success because of her?

I support Erin because she has shown me that she is willing to stand in the gap between where I was and who I have become. She helped me and many others find our way to an independent life. As our state representative I have every confidence that she will make an even bigger impact on people’s lives.
