Welcome
UPCAP was established in 1961 by the U.P. County Board of Commissioners to serve as a regional economic and human resource development and planning organization for Michigan's 15 Upper Peninsula counties. UPCAP manages housing projects, mediation/resolution services, the 2-1-1 Call Center, Community Corrections program, a group home, and other programs.
In 1974, UPCAP was designated as the Region XI (U.P.) Area Agency on Aging, responsible for identifying the needs of the region's senior citizens, and to plan, provide, and advocate for resources to meet those needs in all 15 Upper Peninsula counties. Examples of the types of programs available to fulfill this responsibility include: Information & Assistance, Care Management, Caregiver Support, Ombudsman Services, Nursing Home Diversion and Transition Services, and the Medicare/Medicaid Assistance Program. UPCAP also provides resources to local agencies for services such as Personal & Respite Care, Homemaker & Chore Services, and meals programs.
