Jenny Finn
Springhouse Founding Visionary
Jenny holds a Ph.D. in Sustainability Education from Prescott College and a master’s degree in Social Work from Colorado State University. She is an RSA Fellow and a Country Lead for the USA for HundrED-an international collective highlighting educational innovations globally. For the past twenty-five years, Jenny has been committed to creating healthy culture by starting with an unwavering commitment to her own personal growth and transformation. As a result of her own journey with addiction and cancer, Jenny understands that a healthy relationship with the world begins with a strong connection to ourselves and community. In a culture that often fosters separation and disconnection, Jenny’s research, mentoring, and teaching invites people to deepen the relationship they have with themselves in order to serve the world with greater clarity, compassion, creativity, and courage. Jenny's work has taken many forms including non-profit direction, trauma and hospice care, spiritual care and chaplaincy, private practice, community building through the expressive arts, and educational design. She is the Founding Visionary at Springhouse and sees place-based education oriented around the source of Life as a primary agent to transform culture. She is honored to work with the outstanding Springhouse team and is deeply committed to the Springhouse mission of designing vitality-centered education and sharing the Sourced Design through Sourced Design Labs at Springhouse. Jenny lives on a farm in the Blue Ridge Mountains with her family.
