An institutional organizer, Erwin currently operates at Boston Medical Center to prevent rural overdose deaths and at the Pocasset Pokanoket Land Trust building healthy futures for farmers and land stewards. His organizing and his poetry are conversant, and so he writes about land, drugs, myths, and wanting.
