Weatherization Plus Health
The Washington State legislature expanded its investment in healthy, safe and energy efficient weatherization to include improvements that help children and adults combat asthma and other respiratory issues. This program initiative, called Weatherization Plus Health, combines weatherization improvements in low-income homes with measures that reduce health risks and health costs for impacted families.

The Pierce County Weatherization Assistance Program has partnered with the Pierce County Health Department to assist Qualified households with occupants who have Asthma, COPD or other respiratory issues. Learn more about the project.
