INABC Executive Board

Vice President:  Jenna Conklin, LMSW, RBC, IMH-E(II)

Jenna’s educational journey began at Purdue University, where she obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree.  She then pursued her passion for helping others by obtaining a Masters degree in Social Work from Indiana University, graduating with Honors and earning a place in the Phi Alpha Honor Society for being among the top 20% of her class. Jenna has been an active member of INABC since 2017, becoming a Registered Behavioral Consultant in 2019. A licensed Social Worker, she holds the Infant Mental Health Endorsement and strongly advocates for comprehensive mental health care for all ages.

To continue the hard work of her predecessors, Jenna facilitates the Human Rights Committee for Paladin and serves on several others throughout the state of Indiana.  She believes in building relationships in order to enable a change in societal views, and has trained over 50 first responders, as a vital part of the Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) in her community, about individuals with intellectual disabilities, their behaviors and how to best respond to them when in crisis.

Driven by a deep sense of purpose, Jenna is genuinely passionate about her work as a clinician. She relishes the opportunity to connect with people on a genuine level, going beyond superficial interactions to truly understand their thoughts, motivations, and behaviors. In a world that often prioritizes technology over face-to-face conversations, Jenna believes in the power of authentic, therapeutic dialogue to provide individuals with a safe sanctuary to express their most vulnerable emotions.
