Swords to Plowshares & Veterans Community Center

Swords to Plowshares is a Bay Area nonprofit that has supported veterans since 1974. Its wraparound services connect veterans with housing, employment and income support, health care, meals, and community resources.

The organization’s housing programs pair stable homes with integrated services that promote stability, wellness, and community. Its housing portfolio includes permanent supportive housing and low-barrier transitional housing for veterans.

For Northern California residents, Swords to Plowshares provides legal assistance for veteran-related issues and offers self-help guides covering VA disability compensation, discharge upgrades, military records, PTSD claims, and related benefits matters. Additional housing and support information is available through NHREA’s California homeless assistance resources and federal assistance resources.
