The Weatherization Assistance Program is designed to reduce energy
costs for eligible clients by making their homes more energy efficient.
Weatherization focuses on assisting primarily the elderly, disabled
and low-income families with young children. Energy efficiency education
is provided for each household weatherized. The priority measures that
can be applied to each home are based on an energy audit of the client’s
home.
Weatherization crews install the most cost-effective, energy efficient
measures, and address health and safety concerns, improve comfort
and air quality.
Southwest Mississippi Opportunity Inc. operates a ten-county area for
the Weatherization Assistance Program, including: Adams, Amite, Claiborne,
