- Exchange ideas relating to genealogical research and methodology.
- Provide instruction on topics of interest to members.
- Expand awareness of Swedish society and culture.
- Encourage the research and writing of family, emigration/immigration and settlement histories, and publication of Swedish genealogical material.
