Ozarks Area Community Action Corporation (OACAC) · Nonprofit program

Program details
How it works
The Weatherization Program sponsored by OACAC is a free service for qualified homeowners and renters. The page says the work is meant to help households cut energy bills, stay warmer in winter, stay cooler in summer, and reduce heating and cooling costs.
What the money covers
The page explicitly names insulation and air sealing as the weatherization work provided. It says all work and materials are provided at no cost if you qualify.
Amounts and matching
There is no cash grant amount because this is a free service rather than a reimbursement or loan. The homeowner does not pay for the work or materials.
How to apply
Applications can be accepted by mail or by appointment at an OACAC CSBG Outreach Center. The page also says you can apply online using DocuSign or print a paper application.
Timing and deadlines
No application deadline is stated. The page does say a home is eligible for re-weatherization after 15 years.
Funding source
OACAC states that Weatherization is funded by the Department of Economic Development, Division of Energy.
Related note
The page also mentions a separate Homeowner Emergency Loan Program (HELP) for critical home repairs in Springfield, but it is only described as a linked resource and not as part of the weatherization benefit itself.
