Programs
Circles of Care
The Circles of Care Program plans to build on our current service strengths and utilize our cultural resources, our strong partnerships with the La Conner School District, and the Swinomish Behavioral Health to ensure that a non-duplicative coordinated enterprise occurs to reduce gaps in our mental health services and provide holistic, wraparound support for children and their families.
Youth Spirit Program (YSP)
Adapted from Swinomish's Healing of the Canoe project and designed to empower our youth, YSP offers a culturally-grounded approach to life skills development. It equips young people with essential tools to make positive choices.
Native Connections
The Swinomish Native Connections Grant (SNC) seeks to grow a Pacific Northwest tribal systems transformation to provide comprehensive, coordinated, and culturally grounded care to all Swinomish children and youth (10-24) with complex needs and their families.
