The SWAN Purpose

SWAN advocates for...

• Awareness and recognition by the medical community, educational system, social services, and the general public.
• More dialogue within the medical community with respect to undiagnosed cases.
• Increased continuity of care among and between specialists and primary care physicians.
• Improving the diagnostic process by attempting to participate in/create a database in order to make diagnostic connections.
• Potentially new programs to protect children/families without a diagnosis from "falling through the cracks" and to allow them to access appropriate services.

SWAN provides support to...

• Address the lack of information families have without a diagnosis.
• Offer empathy, understanding and connections to other families.
• Motivate and empower parents and families to advocate for the best heathcare and services for their child.

SWAN helps to address psychosocial concerns such as feelings of isolation, guilt, helplessness, frustration, emotional distress, etc.
