Weatherization funds available for qualified residents

Vancouver, WA – Eligibility screening is now open for those Clark County residents interested in weatherizing their homes. The household must be at or below 200 percent of the federal poverty level.

The program helps eligible low-income homeowners and renters by installing cost-effective, energy-efficient measures that reduce energy usage and heating costs.

Those interested in applying for weatherization services may call (360) 992-3000 for criteria information and to make an appointment. Appointments will be available from now through November 30 and will be held at Clark Public Utilities’ Vancouver Service Center, 1200 Fort Vancouver Way.
