Westcare Pacific Islands, Inc.

Westcare Pacific Islands, Inc., doing business as WPI, is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization headquartered in Tamuning, Guam, that has been registered to receive federal awards since November 2010. WPI specializes in delivering comprehensive social services, substance use disorder treatment, mental health support, and supportive services to vulnerable populations across the Pacific region, with a particular focus on Guam and other Pacific island territories. The organization has established itself as a significant federal contractor and grantee, demonstrating substantial capacity to manage federal funding through an extensive portfolio of prime contracts and grants from multiple federal agencies including the Department of Justice, Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Health and Human Services, Department of the Interior, and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.

WPI's federal contract work has primarily consisted of purchase orders from the U.S. Department of Justice, specifically the Bureau of Prisons Central Office, for substance use treatment services delivered in Hagatna, Guam. Between July 2021 and September 2025, WPI received five firm-fixed-price purchase orders with a combined ceiling value of approximately $43,240. These contracts, none of which carried set-aside designations, had performance periods ranging from three to twelve months and were all executed at the U.S. Courthouse located at 520 West Soledad Avenue in Hagatna, Guam. The contracts enabled WPI to provide intensive outpatient treatment, counseling, testing, and case management support services, reflecting the organization's demonstrated expertise in substance use disorder treatment and its established relationship with federal law enforcement and correctional agencies operating in the Pacific region.

WPI's federal grant portfolio is substantially larger and more diverse than its contract work, encompassing multiple funding sources and program areas. The organization has received significant grant funding from the Department of Veterans Affairs for the Supportive Services for Veteran Families Program (CFDA 64.033), securing multiple awards totaling over $3.8 million since 2021 to provide outreach, case management, benefit assistance, and temporary financial support to very low-income veteran families in Guam. WPI has also been awarded major cooperative agreements and project grants from the Department of Health and Human Services, including a $749,999 five-year Healthy Marriage Promotion and Responsible Fatherhood grant to implement the SPARK program serving couples ages 18-35 in Guam; a $350,000 Basic Center Program grant providing emergency shelter and support services to runaway and homeless youth; and a $1.5 million Project HATSA grant for intensive outpatient substance use disorder treatment serving homeless and chronically homeless families. Additional substantive grants include a $264,194 SSVF award from the VA (2025-2026), a $224,462 Department of the Interior repair and sanctuary facilities grant, and multiple grants from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration supporting youth and young adult mental health treatment, substance misuse prevention, and trauma-informed services. WPI also receives support from the Department of the Interior's Office of Insular Affairs and Department of Labor's Veterans Employment and Training Service for youth and family resource centers and veteran employment initiatives across Guam and Palau. Additionally, WPI serves as a sub-grantee under the Bureau of Women's Affairs, providing 24-hour crisis intervention and emergency shelter services for victims of sexual assault. Collectively, these grants demonstrate WPI's capacity to manage federal funding exceeding $6 million annually across diverse social service, health, and behavioral health program areas targeting vulnerable populations in the Pacific region.
