Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.
Moraga’s seniors can call on the help of many agencies and nonprofits in the region. This list explains how some reduce energy costs and the tax burden while other organizations ensure seniors get a healthy meal every day and have free access to legal advisors.

|---|---|---|
| Neighborhood Preservation Program | (510) 803-3388 | Low-income residents whose homes deteriorated to concerning levels can apply to the Neighborhood Preservation Program for financial assistance. It can cover costs for bringing homes up to standards, including making dangerous areas safe and reducing dependence on energy. |
| Energy Assistance Programs | (510) 803-3388 | The Low Income Home Energy Assistance and Weatherization Programs help Contra Costa County residents with incomes at or below 100% of the Federal Poverty Level reduce their energy costs and make their homes safer and more energy-efficient. They can contribute toward utility bills, including emergency payments, if the supplier threatens disconnection and cover home improvement costs related to energy reduction. This can include installing insulating materials and repairing air leakage/intrusion sources. |
| Contra Costa Senior Legal Services | (925) 609-7900 | Contra Costa Senior Legal Services has provided free legal support in civil law matters to adults aged 60 and over since 1976.

| Meals on Wheels Diablo Region | (925) 937-8311 | Meals on Wheels Diablo Region delivers healthy and fresh meals to homebound adults aged 60 and older who are at risk of nutritional deficiency.

Additionally, it manages five cafes throughout Contra Costa County where seniors who aren't homebound can get a healthy lunch on weekdays and socialize with their peers. |
| Moraga School District Senior Exemptions | (925) 376-5943 | Seniors residing in the Moraga School District may be eligible for exemption from two parcel taxes — Measure K: $325.00 and Measure M: $196.00.

Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – oftentimes it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
