Mission

The mission of the Jordan Porco Foundation is to prevent suicide, promote mental health, and create a message of hope for young adults.

To accomplish this, we

Help challenge stigma by talking openly about mental health issues

Offer engaging and uplifting programming, emphasizing peer-to-peer messaging

Promote help seeking behavior, self-care, and coping skills

Educate about the risk factors and warning signs of suicide and other related mental health concerns

We do this in the name and spirit of Jordan Matthew Porco, who died by suicide in 2011. We’re in it for life.™

Values

Our core values are Positivity, Authenticity, Partnership, and Acceptance. We value diversity, adaptability, hope, connectivity, and we strive to work in an environment that encourages professionalism, respect and passion for this work.
