GLEAMNS
receives funds for the Weatherization Program to help eligible
households with provisions of services and materials in the Upper
Savannah Region (Greenwood, Laurens, Edgefield, Abbeville, McCormick,
Newberry, and Saluda), as well as Anderson, Oconee and Pickens
Counties. The State of South Carolina Weatherization Assistance
Program establishes the policy that eligible dwellings units shall
have the following energy conservation measures installed as
warranted:
By lowering
energy bills for low-income families, Weatherization increases their
self-sufficiency.
Weatherization measures are
delivered to homeowners and renters who
reside in single-family homes and
mobile homes. Priority is given
to applicants who are elderly, disabled, and
households with children.
Applicants must be income eligible to qualify for Weatherization
Assistance based on Federal Poverty Guidelines.
Applicants eligible for Weatherization
are
those who indicated they wanted their
dwelling weatherized during specific enrollment periods. Applicants
are placed on a waiting list based on date of application arrayed by
county. Applicants are notified in writing when their dwelling has
been selected from the waiting
list. Applications are available at our main office in
Greenwood
