Project Title: JORDAN: Empowering Mental Health Through Awareness, Support, and Positive Change
Project Description:

Joining Our Resources, Driving Awareness Nationwide (JORDAN) is dedicated to transforming the landscape of mental health through comprehensive awareness, support, and advocacy initiatives. Founded in 2024 by Shara Gabaldon, JORDAN emerged from a deeply personal journey of loss and determination to honor her son, Jordan, who battled schizophrenia.

Our project focuses on empowering individuals and communities to prioritize mental well-being, combat stigma, and access vital support services. Through a multifaceted approach, JORDAN aims to raise awareness, foster dialogue, and enact positive change at local, national, and global levels.

Key components of our project include expanded community workshops, enhanced school outreach programs, an online resource hub, mental health first aid training, and advocacy for policy reforms. These initiatives aim to address the diverse needs of individuals across demographics, ensuring accessibility and inclusivity.

Through strategic partnerships, leveraging technology, and harnessing the power of peer support, JORDAN seeks to create a culture where mental health is universally recognized and supported. Our project is not just about providing resources; it’s about instilling hope, resilience, and empowerment in those affected by mental illness.

Together, we can build a brighter future where everyone has the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their mental health journey.
