Jessica Ahlering

Youth Enrichment Coordinator at Lakeside Apartments

Born and raised in Monterrey, Mexico, Jessica moved to California for school and lives in Vallejo with her husband and dog. She loves tacos and reading, and has an online business selling handmade items. Jessica is motivated by a student who has been in the afterschool program since first grade. This formerly shy girl is now in high school, student president and is applying for college. The confidence she has gained keeps Jessica going to help other kids in the program. Jessica loves working with the volunteers who give their time to be part of these young people’s success.

What do you love about working at Hope Solutions?

I love that everyone is always looking to help each other and the clients, everyone is always looking for the bright side, like a big family.
