2009 - 2010 Wx (Weatherization) Program:

• CAANH has completed 80% of our goal for weatherizing homes.
• Note - participation in Wx requires prior certification for Energy assistance.

2008 - 2009 Program Successes:

• During our Energy season, 14,914 individual applications were taken, serving approximately 35,000 families in the New Haven area.
• 12,217 of those individuals were eligible for Energy assistance
• Only 2,662 applications were denied either because they were over the income guidelines or because they had incomplete documentation

According to the data released from the Department of Social Services (DSS) on May 26, 2009. The Community Action Agency of New Haven (CAANH) serviced more people this year than ever before.  In fact, CAANH is the third highest ranking Community Action Agency in the state to achieve these numbers.

Our Weatherization program achieved its 08-09 goals as well.
