Welcome!

Every person reading this has experienced, or had a friend or family member who has experienced, mental illness.

The John W. Brick Mental Health Foundation is so excited to partner with Team No Excuses to provide you with content and resources to build your mental health resilience. At JWB, our purpose is to integrate holistic approaches such as exercise, nutrition and mind-body practices into the mental wellness delivery system. We do this by funding and promoting evidence-based research on how exercise, nutrition and mind-body practices benefit mental health resilience. We support programs and initiatives that integrate evidence-based holistic approaches into the mental healthcare delivery system. We serve as a collaborative hub for an array of partners to advance a roadmap for an integrated approach to mental healthcare. And we are thrilled to share all of this with you!

In November at the 2020 Global Wellness Summit, Victor and Lynne Brick were awarded the Debra Simon Award for Leader in Furthering Mental Wellness. Victor shared how he and Lynne turned Heartache into Action by establishing the JWB Foundation. Be inspired by this 5-minute talk on what truly drives our work.
