(KLZA)-- Homeowners as well as those who rent can participate in the Southeast Nebraska Community Action Weatherization Assistance Program.

Eligibility is limited to households with income at or below, 200 percent of the federeal poverty level. Households reeiving either Aid to Dependent Children or Supplemental Security Income and LIHEAP assistance are automaticallly eligible to receive services.

Most households struggling to meet basic needs are unable to afford the upfront costs of energy conserving upgrades or repairs made by higher priced professional companies.

Southeast Nebraska Community Action Partnership's Weatherization Assistance Program provides affordable, no cost solutions for houselholds in need of improving the overall health and safety of their home, while reducing heating and cooling costs.

Once eligibility is determined, a trained SENCA Inspector will perform an on-site inspection of the home. If the home meets program guidelines, what improvements can be made will be determined.

Interested individuals are invited to visit SENCAS's website, www.senca.org and complete an on-line weatherization application or call the SENCA Central Office in Humboldt at 402-862-2411and speak with program director Gin Christiansen.
