Erika Huddleston has deep experience in the local, charitable food system, having served in Loudoun for more than 15 years. She has been with Loudoun Hunger Relief for nearly 10 years, and has had a key role in LHR's expansion planning and execution. Having served in a variety of key roles, Erika currently spearheads LHR's community programming for the newly opened Loudoun Hunger Relief Community Services Center. She has worked to develop effective feedback pathways for the community we serve. Erika is often the liaison with partner agencies, and has served as both Chair and Co-Chair of the Loudoun Food Providers Group, as well as a member of the Loudoun Pediatric Obesity Coalition. Her deep knowledge of the safety net landscape in Loudoun, and her relationships with our service partners allow her to create meaningful programming. Erika’s experience engaging the opinions and feedback of our served community has uniquely equipped her to measure the results of multi-agency referrals and programming designed to empower our community.

Outside of her role at LHR, Erika enjoys spending time with her family and their small ‘zoo’ of pets – but mainly watches a lot of soccer.
