Welcome to the Mid-Peninsula Widows & Widowers Association (MPWWA), a local group serving widows and widowers in the Bay Area. Our primary goal is to provide opportunities for social connections and create a supportive local community.
Established in 1976, MPWWA was formed to offer support during the transitional period and beyond for those who have lost a spouse. Today our focus is fostering new friendships and engaging in shared activities .
