NYSWDA

The New York State Weatherization Directors Association (NYSWDA) located at 5869 Fisher Rd. East Syracuse, NY 13057and its corporate office located in Guilderland, New York was incorporated in 1985 with the goal of providing a collective voice and influencing public policy for directors of the Weatherization Assistance Program across the state. This developed into a uniquely collegial relationship with the state and federal administrators and helped shape the New York State program into one of the best in the nation. NYSWDA continued to grow and expand services over the years and projects such as bulk purchasing of materials, compliance with other state and federal regulators, and conference organization were added to our roster of activities.

Due to the nature and complexity of the Weatherization Program, the next logical step was to provide a centrally located training center where field as wel las management staff could go to receive the latest information on technological advancements in the field of energy conservation. In 2004, NYSWDA was established as a subgrantee by the New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal and a full time staff was hired. With staff on board, we were ready to move into a permanent structure and realize a dream that had been on the drawing table for many years.

In 2006, NYSWDA found its new home on Fisher Rd. in East Syracuse. Our brand new facility provides training to weatherization staff as well as home performance contractors from all over New York State.
