WEATHERIZATION
WX worker

This program weatherizes homes for both summer and winter.  It helps to conserve energy and provides a healthier environment inside the homes.  It enables people to save money on their fuel bills and, thereby, contributes to self-sufficiency. This program can be used by owner occupied and rental units. The landlord must sign a release in order to have any work done to the house. This program is funded by the Department of Energy.

A family qualifies by the size of the household and the yearly income of the household.  The levels are listed below for the 2008-2009 program year:
