Meet Jenna

Hi, I'm Jenna Arsenault.

Real People Deserve Real Solutions

It's time to put everyday people first. It's what I've been doing my whole career.

As a social worker, I've helped people attain housing, medical and mental healthcare, and better financial stability.

I've assisted people in navigating our broken healthcare system as a home healthcare nurse.

Now I'm a small business owner and work closely with new families facing inadequate postpartum care and childcare that is difficult to find and too expensive to afford.

With over 25 years of experience in healthcare and social services, I've seen firsthand the challenges families face and the real solutions that help them thrive.

My Family, Our Values

My husband and I are proud to be raising our two sons in Mount Pleasant, where they attend our local public schools. We're teaching them that kindness matters, empathy is a strength, and helping others is one of life's greatest responsibilities. We love this community—its people, its spirit, and the incredible potential it holds for the future.

Why I'm Running for South Carolina House District 112

I'm running for office because service isn’t just part of my job — it’s part of who I am.

After years of frustration watching career politicians ignore the needs of everyday people, I decided I couldn’t just sit on the sidelines anymore.

Everyday people deserve a voice in the political conversation and decision-making.

I'm an advocate and I'll be a voice for our whole community, not just the loudest or the richest or the ones with the most connections. I'll fight for what's important to us in Columbia.

I won't assume what you need - I'll listen to what you say.

I'll ensure everyone in our district — regardless of party — feels seen, heard, and represented. I'll hold monthly coffee meetups, open office hours, and stay visible in the community. You’ll see me out and about, because being present and accessible is how public service should be done.

I pledge to:

  • Treat you with dignity and respect.

  • Keep it real, and really transparent. (With me, what you see is what you get.)

  • Represent you with compassion because I care.

"My approach to politics puts people first because people matter most."
