We are so excited to announce Spectrum’s newest program: Connect. This program is designed to bring together people, pets and learning opportunities for older adults in our community. We will begin with providing reassurance calls, friendly visits, and pet food and supplies. We know how important being connected is to our seniors. COVID amplified this need. We utilized our Meals
on Wheels & Fall Prevention teams to bridge the gap during COVID. We have now officially expanded this program.

We know that families are still struggling financially from the COVID pandemic. While LIHEAP helps for PG&E and Alameda Municipal Power bills, we had not been able to assist families in need with their water utility bills until now. The new Low-Income Home Water Assistance Program is a COVID-relief program to households with a one-time payment on their drinking water or sewage bill. Assistance is in the form of a direct payment to the participating water or wastewater service giving the resident a credit on their bill.
Program overview:
- LIHWAP can assist with only overdue water or sewage, not both, unless they appear on the same bill.
- Priority is given to those facing discontinuation of services.
To apply: See our website for an application or call us at 510-881-0300.
