The Weatherization Workshop will focus on the importance of home weatherization and how communities can best support their residents in pursuing home weatherization measures. The process of weatherizing a home increases energy efficiency, lowers utility bills, and improves human health and safety. This may involve sealing air leaks and drafts, installing insulation, replacing outdated HVAC systems, etc. There are a number of federal, state, and local programs to assist homeowners in financing these retrofits, and municipalities can create their own weatherization awareness and assistance programs.
This workshop will feature:
A keynote presentation on the importance of weatherization assistance in advancing equity and environmental justice.
A panel discussion featuring providers of weatherization assistance, including private utilities and local government agencies.
A panel discussion featuring engineering and green building professionals, on how weatherization benefits both residents and the environment.
A catered lunch, with a lunchtime keynote from the City of Dallas on their newly-launched Whole Home program.
