Swansea had meager beginnings as a small village in the mid-1800s, but grew over the years to become a thriving small city. The original residents that formed the village of Swansea stood up for what they believed in. Like them, many residents of the city today stand for what is right. But sometimes, what is right is not always easy. If you are struggling emotionally or with stress, you can get help.
