Weatherizaton Assistance for single mothers

If your home is cold in the winter, and your utility bill is too high all year round weatherizing your house will help solve those problems. Weatherization is a process of auditing your home for energy loss ,then taking steps such as adding insulation or caulking and weatherstripping to make the residence more energy efficient, and more comfortable.

The overall goal of the Weatherization program is to serve low-income single mothers that are most vulnerable to high-energy costs and who do not have the means of making cost-effective energy conservation improvements to their homes. Weatherization will reduce energy consumption, increase safety and comfort while reducing your utility bill. Renters and homeowners are both eligible for assistance. The elderly, persons with disabilities and families with children receive priority.
