LIST OF WPI SERVICES

 

WPI strives to provide a ‘safety net’ for companions, primarily in Contra Costa County who, for various reasons, are experiencing health-related or personal challenges and need temporary support.

 

Examples of support include:

• companionship and/or regular ‘check-ins’

• transportation

• meal delivery

• shopping

• referrals to county services and application assistance

• short-term financial assistance

• other support based on need and circumstances.

 

 

WPI services are primarily provided through “Residential Circles” organized by apartment, condo, or residential location in near-by areas.  Each Circle has a designated Point of Contact (POC), who oversees support and alerts other residents in the unit of companions’ needs. 

 

A Sponsor Circle provides oversight of the WPI program, of the POCs and residential circles, and organizes care to those outside the circles and/or who are experiencing pronounced challenges requiring additional support.
