Program details
How it works
New York State’s Weatherization Assistance Program is a statewide energy-efficiency program run by Homes and Community Renewal, but it is delivered locally by county providers. For Kings County, the state provider list shows multiple organizations serving Brooklyn households, including Bedford Stuyvesant Restoration Corp., Crown Heights Jewish Community Council, ODA Community Development Corporation, and Sunset Park Redevelopment Committee, among others.
What the money covers
The state says WAP helps income-eligible families reduce heating and cooling costs through energy efficiency. HCR says weatherization services focus on improving a home’s building envelope, reducing overall energy load and utility cost burden, and in some cases making a home electric-ready or partially electric when systems are replaced. HCR also notes that Weatherization Readiness Funds may address structural and health-and-safety repairs needed so eligible units are not deferred.
Amounts and matching
The official county provider list does not publish a dollar amount for Kings County households. No homeowner match amount is stated on the county provider listing or applicant page.
How to apply
HCR says homeowners should contact the local Weatherization Assistance Provider in their county for an application and more information. The county provider list gives the Brooklyn-serving organizations and their contacts.
Timing and deadlines
The official pages do not state a Kings County-specific opening or closing date. HCR presents WAP as an active ongoing program.
