The full explanation
States and local organizations run it. Both homeowners and renters can apply; if you rent, the provider gets your landlord's permission before work begins. If you are income eligible, you are placed on a waitlist.
An example
Ana rents an apartment that lets in a lot of cold air. She looks up her state's weatherization program, applies and, because she is income eligible, is put on the waitlist. The provider asks the owner for permission before doing the work.
