What is the JCK Foundation?

The JCK Foundation was created in 2011 by John Tessitore from Dobbs Ferry, NY in remembrance of his friend and mentor, John Kelly, who lost his battle with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and depression.

To honor Kelly’s vision, the JCK foundation works together with communities and schools to improve mental wellness and resilience amongst our youth. They believe progress can be made one school at a time, through hands-on awareness and prevention programs that encourage an understanding that every person and story needs to feel valued, accepted and motivated to make a positive impact.
