    • About Us

    SWHELPER is an award-winning, mission-driven, and progressive news website. We are dedicated to providing news, information, resources, and entertainment related to social work, social justice, and social good. Our audience is comprised of academics, policymakers, social workers, students, mental health practitioners, helping professionals, caregivers, and people looking for information to help themselves or a loved one in crisis.

    Our goal is to utilize evidence based data, research, and expertise of helping professionals when reporting on current events and societal problems in an effort to elevate the voices of vulnerable people.

    This platform does not publish content supporting any ideology that fosters inequality and intolerance, and we welcome submissions from all educational backgrounds and disciplines.

    Here at SWHELPER, we acknowledge and understand systematic oppression and its effects on vulnerable groups. How do you pull one’s self up when you don’t have boots? As a society, we must use holistic and intersectional solutions on the macro, mezzo, and micro levels in order to remove challenges and barriers to achieving better outcomes.

    The SWHELPER mobile app was created to help individuals and families find information and resources quicker for issues affecting their daily life. Whether it’s a natural disaster or a family emergency, people need to know how to locate food banks, senior services, domestic violence shelters, crisis helplines, support groups, affordable daycare, low-cost prescriptions, mental health treatment and more when a crisis happens in their lives. Our app has been recommended by the United States Department of Health and Human Services as a community resource. Download here!
