LaFon Jantz

LaFon Jantz co-founded The Center • A Place of HOPE alongside her late husband, Dr. Gregory Jantz, and has spent the better part of four decades helping people find their way back to health and wholeness.

At the heart of her work is the Whole Person Care philosophy: the belief that lasting recovery requires addressing the physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual dimensions of a person’s life.

Beyond The Center, LaFon is co-owner of Red Twig Bakery and Cafe in Edmonds, and is actively involved in her community through a number of philanthropic organizations. She is also a devoted mother to two adult sons and a daughter-in-law.
