Weatherization

The Weatherization Program Provides energy conservation improvements to the dwelling of low income families residing in poorly insulated homes. The cost effective home improvements are designed to make homes safer and provide healthier living environments for families.

Who's Eligible?

Federal income guidelines must be met and the income guidelines are based on 125% of the poverty level. Preference is given to the elderly and handicapped persons, but participants need not be either elderly or handicapped. The program is designed to identify those most in need who would benefit from weatherization conservation methods.
