Service Women's Action Network (SWAN)

Veterans · Illinois · Free

SWAN advocates for active-duty servicewomen and women veterans on issues including Military Sexual Trauma, reproductive health, and pay equity. The free helpline routes Illinois women veterans to peer mentors and pro-bono attorneys handling MST claims and discharge upgrades. SWAN's policy work directly shaped VA's expansion of women's health centers including those at Jesse Brown and Hines.
