Weatherization Training Program
Community Action Agency of Delaware County Inc. (CAADC) has a variety of programs designed to assist economically disadvantaged individuals in their efforts to establish economic self-sufficiency. The agency has been providing employment opportunities and related supportive services to eligible residents of Delaware County for nearly two decades. The primary goal of these programs is to ensure the successful transition of participants into the workforce and to establish a successful career path.
The Weatherization Training Program is an innovative initiative that provides a year-round youth program to economically disadvantaged out-of-school youth. CAADC provides eligible youth, ages 17-21, with training in Weatherization as a Technician or Auditor, work experience training with CAADC’s Weatherization Department, mentoring with CAADC staff, case management, life skills training, GED instruction if necessary, educational opportunities and job placement with CAADC or another related business. Participants take classes at the Weatherization Training Center located at the Pennsylvania College of Technology in Williamsport. This program serves a vital need by providing a career opportunity and a comprehensive continuum of services to these youth. Long-term outcomes include placement in employment in the Weatherization industry with a starting salary potential of $25,000.
