Mission:
The James R. Jordan Foundation is dedicated to creating networks of support for families and communities. It exists to strengthen families, motivate youth and ensure high quality academic opportunities for children in underserved communities. Together with its partners, it makes a difference. It empowers children to achieve their full potential, and it levels the playing field for them to become productive contributors to society.

Vision:
The James R. Jordan Foundation Vision for Families – its series of family programs – is guided by the belief that a strong family plays a major role in a child’s academic success, and that education provides a path out of poverty.
