Our mission to service Veterans and the Community of San Benito County.

The Veterans Transition Center provides services for Monterey County's homeless veterans with traditional housing, emergency services, and case management programs. Through these programs veterans will once again become employable, productive members of the community. VTC does not simply offer short term solutions to homelessness, it strives to better the lives of homeless veterans and aims to give them the tools they need to help themselves.

Many Veterans who served America with honor and distinction during times of war and peace now find themselves homeless. Helping these servicemen and women get off the streets and back on their feet is not giving them a handout. It is merely providing a down payment on a debt that can never adequately be repaid.

Vets 4 Vets is a Santa Cruz nonprofit that is made up of veterans and friends creating community and assisting our brothers and sisters in need.

Our mission is to empower, inspire and ensure equitable opportunities for every student to thrive. We teach and nurture the whole child in an academically rigorous, collaborative, and innovative environment.

SAVING LIVES SINCE 1959
