About this organization
Mission
We convene stakeholders and develop their capacity to transform the housing ecosystem by offering credible, accessible resources. We built our reputation on bringing residential green building into the mainstream, but we’ve always known that shifting home building toward more sustainable practices was a starting place, not a destination. Today, we’re envisioning a new approach to home and neighborhood building that fosters health in the broadest sense — as an interconnected web of personal, community, and bioregional well-being.
About
Energy efficiency low-income weatherization program: LIWP provides a variety of services intended to promote the use of safe and clean energy in households living within the disadvantaged communities. Once eligibility criteria is met, including income qualifications and location of residence (must be in the DAC, or disadvantaged communities area), Build it Green sends out its qualified and certified assessors to determine the energy products available for the home. These improvements can save a homeowner money on their utility bills to achieve better energy efficiency. They are installed at zero cost to the homeowner.
