Please let us know if any of the links are no longer active and if you know of resources that we should add to the list. And always feel free to call or email for help finding resources, via the info on our contact page.
Seamless Transition
Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) web site for returning Active Duty, National Guard and Reserve service members of Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom (OEF/OIF).
This is the catch all site for all GWOT veterans. It can be hard to navigate at times, but it is a clearing house for nearly all benefits and health related issues. For medical, or any mental health, substance abuse, OIF/OEF, or MST issues.
Monterey Veterans Transition Center
The mission of the Veterans Transition Center is to provide services for Monterey County’s homeless veterans and their families. By providing veterans with transitional housing, emergency services and case management 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.
