What is Nebraska Low Income Weatherization Assistance Program?

Weatherization enables low-income families in Nebraska to reduce their energy bills by making their homes more energy efficient. The homes of eligible individuals are evaluated to identify the most effective energy and dollar saving improvements.  Services include adding insulation, examining energy-related health and safety issues, making heating efficiency improvements, reducing air leakage, and providing energy efficiency education.  Preference is given to individuals over 60, individuals with disabilities, and families with children under six.
