Our Story

The Southwest Institute for Grief & Trauma Studies (SWIGTS) is a training institute whose mission is to close the GAP in grief education for helping professionals with Grief Affirming Practice,TM.  SWIGTS was born from the lived experiences of systemic failures within the behavioral health system that exist as a result of inadequate training. SWIGTS is increasing access to leading edge grief and trauma education so that all helping professionals have the skills to help in the midst of profound human suffering.
