History of Weatherization
• 1976: A Nation in Crisis• High unemployment rates
• High energy costs
• Weatherization was born
![Page 4: Kelly's weatherization presentation updated 2.29](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062522/589d0bad1a28ab255c8b6a31/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

Success Stories: Quotes from ClientsThe weatherizing has
made a HUGE difference
– my older daughter’s
bedroom floor is no
longer icy in the winter,
and the knee-wall doors
don’t open by themselves when it’s
windy. All good!
H.M.
To USCAA, To all those involved in our
weatherization, “Thank
You!, Thank You, Thank
You” We cannot put into
words all that we feel and
want to let you know that
there is no possible way we
could’ve done what you all
did for us. This has truly
answered our prayers in
our time of need! What a
Blessing and we are forever
grateful!
