Jennifer Schember-LangDirector of Administrative Services
Jennifer’s career in Hawai‘i spans more than 30 years, six non-profit organizations, and a range of social justice issues: access to appropriate education, health care, housing, employment opportunities, and full inclusion and integration of people with disabilities in all communities and in all areas.
Jennifer received her undergraduate degree in international relations from the University of Minnesota and her law degree from William Mitchell College of Law in St. Paul, MN. Her most important teachers include the kids she has supported and their parents, the dedicated leaders and staff at the many Hawai‘i non-profits with whom she’s worked, several longstanding mentors and close friends, and her colleagues at One Shared Future. Jennifer is glad to be part of OSF, which allows her to play to her strengths and make a difference for children, families, and communities in Hawai‘i.

From the first session, I immediately felt the “buzz” that I get when I am around a group of action-oriented, like-minded individuals…It is rare that we get to slow down and appreciate who we are, where we are and where we would like to be.
Judy Mohr Peterson
We sent 9 people from our team to take part in OSF’s Appreciating Change series. Every person expressed that the experience impacted their work—and was sometimes life-changing. We’ve seen marked changes in how these individuals engage with their teams.

I’m grateful for One Shared Future because it provided us the opportunity to meet new friends and colleagues who are fighting the same battles! We got to… identify ways that we can move together toward better serving our brothers and sisters across the state.
