A life-long resident of Chicago’s Southland, Erica France Jenkins discovered her passion for public service and the value of helping others from her parents and her church.

Her commitment to life-long learning led her to earn a Bachelor of Science Degree from Chicago State University, then a Master of Arts Degree from the Chicago School of Professional Physchology with a emphasis in Human Relations.

Erica currently serves as President of the Calumet City Library Board where she’s worked tirelessly to transform our city’s library into a state-of-the-art learning and community center we can be proud of.
