We will continue processing rent checks for veteran clients during this time. Please continue to coordinate with your case manager or contact us at SSVF@stp-sf.org.

LEGAL SERVICES

If you are a San Francisco resident seeking help with VA benefits or a discharge upgrade, please contact Swords’ Intake Specialist Rebecca Beville at rebecca.beville@stp-sf.org or 415.252.4788 ext. 313.

All San Francisco veterans are eligible for a free one-time consultation with our attorneys, regardless of discharge status, the era of service, or length of service.
