Alabama Weatherization Assistance Program

How it works

Alabama Power says the Alabama Weatherization Assistance Program helps reduce energy costs for low-income households by improving the energy efficiency of their homes. The utility’s assistance page says applications must be submitted through a local community action agency.

What the money covers

The official pages describe the program broadly as home weatherization and energy-efficiency improvements. Alabama Power also says the program improves the energy efficiency and safety of homes selected for assistance, and that health and safety checks are performed on each home.

Local administrator for Colbert County

A state announcement from Alabama Power identifies Community Action Agency of Northwest Alabama Inc. as the agency serving Colbert, Franklin, and Lauderdale counties.

Timing and deadlines

• The application period is established locally by each community agency.
• The official pages do not state a fixed open or close date for Colbert County.

Notes for homeowners

This is not a county-specific county-government grant, but it is the local weatherization program serving Colbert County residents through the designated community action agency.
