Westcare Pacific Islands, Inc.

Westcare Pacific Islands, Inc. (doing business as WPI), a tax-exempt nonprofit based in Tamuning, Guam, operates as a federal grant recipient delivering substance use disorder treatment, mental health services, housing stability support, and youth and family programming to vulnerable populations across the Pacific region. The organization competes full-and-open on federal grants and carries no set-aside designations; its federal footprint is dominated by grant awards (90% prime recipients) rather than federal contracts.

WPI's customer concentration centers on the Department of Veterans Affairs and HHS. The VA Veterans Health Administration accounts for 14 awards across multiple grant programs including the Supportive Services for Veteran Families program (SSVF, CFDA 64.033), which carries roughly $49 million in obligated funding. The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Central Office has issued seven purchase orders for substance use treatment services in Hagatna, Guam, totaling approximately $47 thousand in combined potential value. The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families supports four grants including a $1.05 million Basic Center Grant (CFDA 93.623) for runaway and homeless youth emergency shelter through September 2028 and a $2.25 million Cooperative Agreement under the Healthy Marriage Promotion and Responsible Fatherhood Grants program (CFDA 93.086) to deliver the SPARK healthy marriage education program serving 270 couples ages 18-35 in Guam through September 2030. The Department of the Interior Insular Affairs has funded three grants totaling approximately $224 thousand for facility repair and youth and family resource center operations in Palau.

Representative prime work includes a $375 thousand obligated SAMHSA Center for Substance Abuse Treatment grant (CFDA 93.490) awarded September 2026 to expand residential substance use and co-occurring disorder treatment for 150 youth ages 12-17 and families in Guam through September 2029, with performance objectives including 65 percent treatment completion rates and 70 percent of completers achieving substance-free status at six months post-admission. WPI also operates Project Hatsa (Uplift), a SAMHSA-funded housing-first model program providing intensive outpatient treatment and case navigation to 200 homeless and chronically homeless families annually through September 2027. DOJ contracts reflect small firm-fixed-price purchase orders for substance use treatment services performed at the U.S. Courthouse in Hagatna, including a $3,920 order for the October 2024 through September 2025 period.

WPI operates as a sub-recipient under four grant sub-awards, including trauma-informed counseling services for youth ages 11-24 who are victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and sex trafficking under the Guam Bureau of Women's Affairs; crisis intervention and emergency shelter placement coordination through the same bureau; and mental health court screening, assessment, and treatment services in collaboration with the CNMI Judicial Branch.

Recent activity has held steady at five to six awards per year over the past three years, with two awards recorded in 2026. Four awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete risk in that window. Combined obligated funding across all awards stands at $49.5 million against approximately $95 thousand in combined potential value, reflecting a portfolio heavily weighted toward grants with obligated rather than ceiling values. Work is performed in Guam and Palau, with administrative oversight centered in Tamuning.
