Jennifer Feinberg

I have been a Chilliwack Progress reporter for 20+ years, covering the arts, city hall, as well as Indigenous, and climate change stories.

With a bachelor’s in journalism from Concordia University, I moved across the country to B.C. from Quebec in the mid-90s. I wrote for the Coast Mountain Courier and freelanced for Black Press Media until joining the Progress newsroom in 2000.

I was proud to host the Dining Out for Life AIDS/HIV fundraiser at Bravo Restaurant from 2005-2012. I currently serve on the Chilliwack Museum Historical Society (2020-present) board of directors, after stints on the Ann Davis Transition Society board, and the Chilliwack Community Arts Council.
