Erin Erenberg is the Co-Founder and CEO of Chamber of Mothers, the largest nonpartisan 501(c)(3) nonprofit fighting for maternal rights in the U.S. Through grassroots movements and local chapters, the organization focuses on paid leave, affordable childcare, and maternal health.
In November 2021, after paid family leave was cut from President Biden’s Build Back Better plan, Erin joined nine other moms to advocate for the millions of mothers left behind. The defeat left many mothers questioning what came next: A strike? A union? A movement? Erin came to two key realizations. First, the power of mothers. With 85 million moms in the U.S. holding trillions in spending power and shaping household decisions, Erin wondered why there wasn’t a unified group fighting for them. Second, women across the country were considering alternatives to the U.S. after losing the paid leave battle. Erin asked: What if we united to create the country we want for future generations?
Today, with more than 40 local chapters and channels that reach millions of moms every month, Chamber of Mothers directly empowers mothers through advocacy, shifting the narrative on motherhood and showing lawmakers that mothers are a powerful force for change.
Outside of her advocacy work with the Chamber of Mothers, Erin is an attorney specializing in intellectual property law and the founder and CEO of Totum, an advocacy platform for modern mothers at the intersection of ambition and motherhood. She is a highly sought-after speaker on work-life balance, overcoming burnout, and achieving equity. She’s been featured in TIME, Motherly, Marie Claire, Salon, and Ms. Magazine. Erin now lives in South Carolina with her three kids—George, Arabella, and Beau—husband Victor, and their Boykin Spaniel, Billie.
