Trying to avoid the dreaded AND/OR in Non Profit Mission Statement

I have to finish this nonprofit mission statement tonight and would appreciate any help that may be provided.

This is long enough already and I have shortened it as much as I can. Cutting anything else out really doesn't provide an accurate statement of mission. At least I don't think so.

In the Mission Statement below is the portion that reads "...who are mentally ill, and the victims of sexual assault; or addicts or alcoholics, or any combination of these issues. We provide educational grants......." This is the part I don't like and can't figure out how to word it so that it makes clear sense.

MISSION STATEMENT

"xyz is a nonprofit organization that is confident the the power of art provides a healing path for individuals who are mentally ill, and victims of sexual assault; or addicts or alcoholics, or any combination of these issues. We provide educational grants and scholarships for art school to these members of our society".

ANY help is welcome. Thank you.
