PRINCETON, NJ — Corner House Behavioral Health has appointed David Errickson as its new Executive Director of Clinical Operations. Errickson has been the Director of Clinical Operations for the last 18 years. "I started with Corner House as a full time clinician over 25 years ago. I knew then what a special place this is and what an important role it plays in the Princeton community," Errickson said. "Over the years I have been a part of the agency's evolution in services provided to the community, expanding its role from a community-based substance abuse and co-occurring mental health treatment center to including comprehensive prevention, leadership and outreach services." In his role of Director of Clinical Operations, Errickson advocated for training of clinicians in proven therapeutic techniques to help current and future Corner House clients. Since then, Corner House Behavioral Health has grown significantly in the size and scope of its services, the organization said. In the past few years, a full-time, bilingual Spanish-English clinician has joined the Corner House staff to provide better clinical services to the Princeton area's Spanish-speaking population. "I am excited about the opportunity to step into a new leadership role at Corner House. Having been around for 25 of its 50-year history allows me to bring forward what we know really helps this community as well as create new innovative approaches in the future," Errickson said. Errickson received his master's degree from the Rutgers University Graduate School of Social Work, where he is a part-time lecturer teaching graduate course work in the Addiction Counselor Training (ACT) program. Corner House works to treat and prevent alcohol and drug addiction among teens, adults, and families in the Princeton area.
