Erin Inman​

Erin Inman has dedicated her career to public service, with a focus on educating criminal justice professionals about the dangers of impaired driving and their critical role in reducing injuries and fatalities on America’s roadways. She currently serves as the Director of the National Traffic Law Center (NTLC) at the National District Attorneys Association (NDAA), where she leads a team in developing training programs and resources to support Traffic Safety Resource Prosecutors (TSRPs) and prosecutors nationwide.

Earlier in her career, Erin was elected as the County Attorney for Prairie County, Montana. She prosecuted a wide range of criminal cases—from traffic violations to homicide while under the influence—and played a key role in child and adult protection teams. Her leadership extended to collaboration as a member of the Eastern Montana Drug Task Force.  Following her time as Prairie County Attorney, she served as an Assistant Attorney General at the Montana Law Enforcement Academy, where she developed and delivered training to public safety professionals, including prosecutors, law enforcement officers, corrections officers, and public safety communicators. She then became Montana’s first TSRP, where she built and implemented the state’s TSRP program from the ground up. In this pioneering role, she significantly enhanced the capacity of prosecutors to effectively handle traffic safety cases involving serious injury, death, and impaired driving. Her work was instrumental in shaping Montana’s response to emerging issues such as cannabis-impaired driving and Bakken boomtown related commercial motor vehicle crashes in rural communities.

Erin began her career in the health sector and military service, including work as a pharmacy technician in the U.S. Army Reserves. She received her Bachelor of Science degree in Soil and Crops Science from Colorado State University and graduated cum laude from Pepperdine Law School.
