Weatherization Services



As many as 20 to 30 million U.S. families are eligible for weatherization services nationwide. Services are provided by the states, and each state has slightly different criteria. All energy services are handled by local weatherization agencies.

If you receive Supplemental Security Income or Aid to Families with Dependent Children, you are automatically eligible to receive weatherization services. In other cases, states give preference to:

* People over 60 years of age
* Families with one or more members with a disability
* Families with children (in most states).

One of the primary factors affecting eligibility is income.
