# Add or Update an Address

Add or update an address for Contacts, Households, or Organizations in NPSP.

- **[Add or Update a Constituent Address](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sfdo.npsp_add_or_update_addr.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    When you add or update a constituent address, NPSP automatically syncs address information for all Contacts in the Household Account. That way you never have to worry that you're using two different addresses for people in the same household.
- **[Add or Update an Organization Account Address](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sfdo.npsp_add_or_update_addr.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Organization Accounts represent businesses. When you add or edit an Organization Account's address, the change applies to the Organization Account only and not to any related Contact records.

## Add or Update a Constituent Address

When you add or update a constituent address, NPSP automatically syncs address information for all Contacts in the Household Account. That way you never have to worry that you're using two different addresses for people in the same household.

1. Find the Contact record you want to edit.
2. Click **Edit**.
3. Enter the Mailing Address information.
4. Save the Contact.

    Note To enter an address for a Contact that’s different from what’s used for the rest of the household, select **Address Override** on the Contact.

You can also change the address for a constituent and their related household members by editing the Household Account and updating the Billing Address fields. The Billing Address is the primary address for a Household Account.
