It is with great sadness that the directors of the Jacka Foundation for Natural Therapies announce the passing of our Founder, Judy Jacka.
Judy passed away on 1 March 2022 after an illness of some months. The Board extends our heartfelt condolences to Judy’s family and friends, and to the many colleagues who held her in high esteem. Judy dedicated her life to healing, teaching and philanthropy, and her contributions to people’s health, and to the profession of naturopathy, are inestimable.
