Founded in 2003 in honor of Kiona Tejan Jenkins, Kiona Foundation Inc. is a 501(c)(3) public charity conducting botanical drug discovery and IRB-registered research into the endocannabinoid system. The New York-based foundation follows the FDA Botanical Drug Development pathway, linking pharmacognosy with its Home for Hope research and cultivation campus in Wayne County, New York, and with Indigenous land partnerships across 11 international ecosystem nodes. Its active KF-ECS-2025 study seeks less toxic options for patients and families when conventional treatment has fallen short.
