The Weatherization Program
Created through the U.S. Department of Energy, the Weatherization Program seeks to decrease cost of utilities for homes of low-income families by examining and improving the efficiency of their utilities. MesaCAN's office provides Weatherization to residents of Mesa who qualify with proof of income.

Weatherization provides long-term results by examining the cause of high utility bills. A few areas of improvement include roofing, insulation, and air conditioner/heater replacement. Some measures, such as insulating walls or roofs, for example, will continue to provide savings for the lifetime of a house.

MesaCAN’s Weatherization Program is proud to partner with the following:

• Department of Energy 
• Low Income Household Emergency Assistance Program 
• The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) 
• ARRA- Sustainable Energy Resources for Consumers
