The Stranger:
Kevin Erickson recently moved to Seattle from Anacortes, where he was the resident do-it-all for the Department of Safety, to take a job as coordinator and interim co-director of the All-Ages Movement Project, an organization founded by all-ages super-advocate Shannon Stewart of the Vera Project. In his new role, Erickson will help AMP continue to execute its vision of providing an all-inclusive organization for open communication and interaction between successful and fledgling all-ages spaces across the country. AMP’s first phase has resulted in The All-Ages Movement Project, a forthcoming publication compiling years of research on successful all-ages spaces across the nation. Next up for the organization will be to distribute that information, to set up an online support forum for all-ages advocates and spaces, and to let organizations know that these resources are available, according to Erickson.
