To reduce the “madness” of illiteracy, negative activity and violent behavior for at-risk youth through the development of programs designed to create discipline, self-awareness, and empowerment.
Dr. Ternae T. Jordan, Sr.
Founder

Dr. Ternae T. Jordan is a native of Chattanooga, Tennessee and currently, after returning to Chattanooga, serves as Senior Pastor of Mt. Canaan Baptist Church. Noted for his unyielding “passion for God and compassion for people” he has been actively involved in the process of redeeming the hearts of our nation’s youth for more than two decades. One of those vehicles has been Stop the Madness, which he founded in 1992.

In October 1993, Dr. Jordan’s son, T.J., was at the YMCA waiting to be picked up from a piano lesson when he was shot in the head by a stray bullet.
