Erin Burke
Site-Based Program Coordinator - Missoula
After making her way west from Virginia over a decade ago, Erin has called Missoula home and feels grateful to be raising her young son in such a special place. She has dedicated much of her career to working with Montana youth, first as a wilderness therapy guide and later as an attorney specializing in cases involving Child and Family Services. Erin sees mentorship and building strong support systems as some of the most powerful tools for creating resilience and lasting change.
​
A lifelong learner, Erin is always seeking new challenges. Outside of work, she is usually outside hiking with her dogs, camping, mountain biking, paddleboarding, or skiing. At home, she enjoys playing with her son, sharing meals with her beautiful blended family, and curling up with a good book.
Melissa Miller
Program Coordinator - Kalispell
Melissa is a Montana native with a B.A. in Communication Studies from the University of Montana. She has spent her career supporting children and families through coaching, outreach, and technical assistance—always with a focus on turning connection into impact. She’s passionate about building inclusive communities and believes that strong support systems help families—and entire communities—thrive.
Melissa has a knack for making people feel seen, heard, and supported.
In her free time, you’ll find her with her husband and kids playing card games, chasing sunshine at the farmers market, or curled up with a good book. She believes strong communities start with strong relationships, and she’s here to help make that happen, one card game or conversation at a time.
