The Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) is 100% federally-funded through a grant from the Federal Department of Energy. The program provides funds to the states to assist with the weatherization of the homes of low income elderly and disabled adults and families.
WAP services are available in all 95 counties. To apply for assistance, please contact the local agency serving your County. The program is administered through contracts with an established network of 18 non-profit agencies and local governments experienced in providing weatherization services.
Applicants must meet low-income eligibility guidelines based on established federal poverty guidelines. Activities include: insulation, storm windows, caulking, and other related activities to reduce home energy costs and increase home energy efficiency.
