On Indigenous People's Day, Swords shares our gratitude to the Muwekma, Ohlone, and Ramaytush peoples - the original stewards of the land we work on. We also recognize Native veterans’ service and contributions to our country and proudly reaffirm our commitment to equity and justice for all who served. In federal observance, we are closed today, Monday, October 13th. #IndigenousPeoplesDay #SupportVets

For some veterans, today can bring about complicated emotions and trigger PTSD. As we celebrate our country, we also remain dedicated to addressing the ongoing wounds military service enacts. Please be aware that Swords' operations are closed in observation. #vetshelpingvets

Today, we reflect on the sacrifices African American veterans have given even when our country didn't grant them equal rights. We stand in solidarity with them as we celebrate #Juneteenth! Please note that some Swords operations are closed.
