After more than two decades helping organizational leaders advance nonprofit governance and financial sustainability nationally, Jenifer founded JLG Consulting to bring her unique human-centric skills to the field of capacity building in new ways. The firm serves executive and board leaders across a broad range of nonprofit types, including fiscally-sponsored entities. A certified coach and seasoned program designer, Jenifer has developed peer cohort groups focused on governance, race equity, and social entrepreneurship. In all of her engagements, Jenifer works to employ the best ideas in strategy, management, facilitation, capacity building, and human development to harmonize individual insights with shared human endeavors in service to real results. She does this with a focus on human dignity and racial equity.
