Meet Jen Arent, our Community Engagement Specialist!

Jen joined The Zones in March 2026 and is passionate about building meaningful partnerships and connecting families with resources that strengthen our community. With years of nonprofit experience, she has dedicated her career to serving Sonoma County and supporting organizations that create lasting impact.

A Santa Rosa native, EMERGE Leadership Program graduate, and Certified Occupancy Specialist, Jen also spent nearly a decade serving on the Sonoma County Area Agency on Aging, advocating for programs that improve lives.

Now, she's bringing that same passion to The Zones and is helping create opportunities for local youth and families while advancing our mission to inspire and engage youth through community-based educational and social enrichment programs in a purpose-driven, positive environment.

We're so grateful to have Jen on the team!
