Front Porch Forum's mission is to help neighbors connect and build community, thereby increasing local
resilience. We do that by hosting a network of online local forums covering all of Vermont, where neighbors
share postings and engage about a wide variety of topics. We further our mission by providing other
features, such as our local Business Directories, Community Calendars, Search and paid ads. The resulting
increase in social capital and community cohesion benefits neighbors, government, local businesses,
nonprofits and local journalism.
