Jennifer

Posted on


Jennifer was born and raised in Woodland in a third generation Yolo County family that has deep connections to the community, but also had some struggles along the way. Only in college did Jennifer realize that being in need of support services wasn’t typical for every family. She had plenty of time for discovery at college – as she earned a grand total of three degrees in early childhood development. That background mixed with her incredible knowledge and expertise, combined with ten years as a preschool teacher in Woodland – made Jennifer the perfect candidate to build the Help Me Grow program and now serves as the program coordinator.
