How to apply for Weatherization Assistance Program — Missouri
Missouri Department of Natural Resources, Division of Energy, through 18 local agencies
Who it's for
Missouri's Weatherization Assistance Program makes free energy-efficiency improvements — insulation, air sealing, and heating-system work — for low-income households, especially the elderly and people with disabilities. Households at or below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines (or receiving SSI) qualify under the federal standards the program uses. Apply through the local weatherization agency for your county; the agency verifies income, performs an energy audit, and completes the work at no cost.
Income eligibility follows federal DOE guidelines (200% of poverty or SSI receipt), and the local agency qualifies applicants and schedules work with priority for elderly households — so this shows as a may-qualify result.
What you'll need
- Income documentation for all household members
- Landlord permission if renting
