Department of Health and Human Services provide funding for the Weatherization Program. The Weatherization Program was established to help decrease their home energy costs and to be attentive to energy-related health and safety issues in the home. Income-eligible families and individuals typically spend a higher percentage of their annual income for energy to heat, cool, and run appliances in their homes. The former FEA was eventually folded in the new U.S.

In 1976, Congress gave the Federal Energy Administration (FEA) the authority to operate a National Weatherization Assistance Program that would distribute funds to state governments. After providing the first grant to the state of Maine, the program quickly expanded to encompass most of the New England states. The program began as an anti-poverty initiative by the federal government shortly after the Arab Oil Embargo of 1973. The Weatherization Program has the primary mission of reducing the fuel or electricity expense for space heating, space cooling, and water heating for income-eligible households while improving the health and safety of the dwelling's occupants.
