A graduate of Florida State University, our Development Director Kendall Sisisky Valliere holds a bachelor’s degree in International Affairs and a master’s degree in Public Administration from the University of North Florida. An alumnus of our JCA’s Michele Block Gan Yeladim Preschool & Kindergarten, Kendall is also a lifelong member of our JCA.

Born and raised in Jacksonville, Kendall first found her passion in the nonprofit sector as an intern with the American Diabetes Association.  She worked in the Mission department at St. Vincent’s Health Care where she oversaw the coordination of the hospital’s food pantry. Kendall re-joined the JCA family as an employee in 2016 serving as our Special Projects Coordinator and was promoted to Development Director in 2022.

When Kendall is not at the JCA, she loves to travel, specifically to London which is her favorite city, be with her family, take photos and listen to true crime podcasts.
