Patsy Owens, a resident of Orchard Knob, has recently received much-needed assistance in the form of a new roof for her 73-year-old home. The roof was completed last year as part of the Connected Communities Program, which aims to improve the energy efficiency of homes in the area. Owens expressed her gratitude for the program in a recent telephone interview, stating that she would not have been able to afford a new roof without this assistance.
The Connected Communities Program has provided many residents in the Orchard Knob area with various resources to improve their living situations. In addition to home energy upgrades and a new roof for Owens’ home, individuals in the area have also received laptop computers and internet access for telehealth and other online needs. Over the past couple of years, dozens of residents have been able to benefit from this program and improve their living conditions.
Owens’ new roof has significantly improved her home and alleviated financial stress for her. She is just one example of how the Connected Communities Program has made a positive impact on the lives of residents in Orchard Knob. With its focus on energy efficiency and community support, this program continues to provide valuable resources and assistance to those who need it most.
