Mission: Swan Center Outreach, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, was established in 1999, for the purpose of rescuing abused and neglected animals; and educating the general public, about the spiritual and therapeutic value of a loving relationship with animals. We view animals as teachers, healers and friends, because they have a wonderful capacity for teaching us compassion, patience and tolerance; for healing the mind and the body; and for showing us how to love and be loved in return. Our Mission is to partner with horses and offer free and fee-based educational and therapeutic programs forchildren and adults, including those with physical and mental challenges; and to serve as a bridge from were you are in life to where you want to be. Our Vision for the Swan Center is that it will be viewed as a place, where people from all walks of life can turn to for peace, inspiration, acceptance, healing, love and kindness. ​Our Core Values are: Serving others
