At SWAN, we know that music alone cannot heal trauma—but when combined with mental health care, mentorship, and the truth of God’s Word, it becomes a powerful instrument of transformation.

Every child we serve has experienced deep loss, instability, or separation due to parental incarceration. These are wounds that run deep—but healing is possible. That’s why mental health support is woven into the heart of our program.

Mental Health Support at SWAN Includes:

  • Immediate access to licensed mental health professionals
  • One-on-one trauma-informed care to help students process complex emotions
  • Social-emotional learning classes that build resilience, trust, and communication skills
  • Mentorship and music lessons that empower students to express themselves and succeed
  • Bible classes that ground students in hope and truth, showing them they are deeply loved and never alone

We’ve seen the impact: children once silenced by fear are now performing, leading, and believing in their worth. That’s the power of a holistic program built around love, structure, and healing.

Join the Mission of James 1:27

“Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress…” (James 1:27)

This is the heart of SWAN. And we can’t do it alone.

Would you help us spread the word? Introduce SWAN to someone in your network who may be passionate about children, mental health, or the arts. Or consider becoming a monthly donor—your consistent support helps us walk alongside children all year long.

Together, we can restore what trauma has stolen. Let’s keep building safe places where children are seen, heard, and healed.
