The state landing page also cross-links to six topic-specific subpages (Mental Health, Housing, Employment, Healthcare, Claims Help, Crisis Support) and to neighboring-state directories (Arizona, Nevada, Oregon) for veterans living near borders.

California is the bellwether: 1.7 million veterans, the most CVSOs of any state, the highest concentration of homeless veterans, and the most aggressive state-level supplemental benefits stack.
