Southwest Key Programs (SWK) is one of the largest, Latino-led nonprofit organizations in the United States. Founded in 1987, SWK has been on the frontline of social justice, youth advocacy, immigration, and helping nurture the hearts and minds of children, youth, and families. For 35 years, Southwest Key has created a culture of Familia in fulfilling their service platform that includes:

Youth and Family Services

In 1987, Southwest Key started their Youth and Family Services division to serve the needs of youth in the Juvenile Justice System. Through family preservation, mental health, parenting, and alternative education, SWK’s Youth and Family Services has grown to more than 30 programs serving communities in Florida, Georgia, New York, and Texas.

With the safety and wellness of the children as our highest priority, Southwest Key’s Unaccompanied Minors program provides round-the-clock care for children and youth who are pending reunification with a vetted sponsor in the U.S.
