| Goal: To make energy efficiency improvements to homes of eligible low-income households (200% of federal poverty guidelines) to offset heating and cooling consumption. Weatherizing for the long-term helps reduce utility bills year after year. Weatherization Assistance Program Blount County Community Action Agency – Weatherization Assistance Program has received an additional $1,260,904 through the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act (ARRA) for the grant period of June 9, 2009 through September 30, 2010 (or until funds are expended). This will enable Blount County Community Action Agency to weatherize a minimum of 164 eligible homes in addition to those weatherized under our regular program. Blount County residents living at or below (200% of federal poverty guidelines) are eligible for Weatherization Assistance according to a Priority Point System. This system provides a way to evaluate and select which clients can be served and in what order. Priority is given to elderly and disabled low income persons, low income families with children under the age of six years, and high energy consuming homes. Persons interested in applying for assistance should contact Blount County Community Action Agency for an appointment and application.

Upon receipt of the application, you will be contacted regarding an appointment. This project is funded under an agreement with the Department of Human Services.
