Energy Services & Economic Assistance Programs
Community Action Wayne/Medina offers a variety of programs designed to support the needs of low-income people. The programs are designed based on community need and available funding.
HOUSING ASSISTANCE
CAW/M Housing programs are for low-income homeowners and renters unless otherwise noted. Each program is based on funding availability and frequently have a waitlist. When possible, multiple programs are used in combination on a home in order to achieve the most cost savings and help the largest number of households in both counties. At no cost, households can receive help with energy efficiency, weatherization, and/or health and safety home repair.
To apply for any of the housing programs, contact the main office at 330-264-8677.
