Community Action Month....it's a wrap!
A few of our team members attended the annual TACA (Tennessee Association of Community Action) Conference during the week of May 11th-14th in Knoxville, TN where we gathered with other community action professionals across the state to network and reflect on what community action means to us individually and collectively. We took some time to celebrate the impact we make in our communities! The conference presenters and motivational speakers provided a wealth of resources and tools to expand our knowledge as well as encouragement for dealing with the day to day challenges we face. Community Action work is not just a job, it's a calling. Special shout out to Kreda Yokley, TACA Execute Director and conference planning committee, and our State partners for pulling off a great conference! We wrapped up the month with Fun Day Friday and took some time for fellowship, team building and shared tools for dealing with burnout.
We are truly thankful to be a part of a wonderful network of professionals who have the passion for serving others.

📢We’re excited to share that Tennessee Housing Development Agency has launched a new HVAC Repair & Replacement Pilot Program through the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)!

Under this pilot initiative, LIHEAP Weatherization (LIHEAP Wx) Subgrantees will provide HVAC Repair and Replacement services in partnership with LIHEAP Subgrantees. This pilot program is intended to stabilize vulnerable households facing energy-related emergencies associated with a non-functioning or malfunctioning heating or cooling system.

Even better — participating in this pilot program will NOT affect a household’s eligibility for additional Weatherization Assistance services through the LIHEAP Weatherization Program or the Department of Energy (DOE) Weatherization Assistance Program.

📢To apply, must be done when applying for LIHEAP Assistance, mark "YES" to the question: "Do you have any additional needs to be considered?" AND
Select "HVAC Unit" from the household Tab drop-down menu with SmartSimple.
Any applicant whose application has been closed (approved and paid) will receive an email with a SurveyMonkey.
