About the event
Yale researchers shared early focus group findings about New Haven tenants’ experiences with energy costs and energy efficiency programs in this interactive community event. Bonnie Roswig, the director of disability rights and the medical-legal partnership project at The Center for Children's Advocacy, advised participants about accessing energy assistance and protection programs. Tenants, activists, and community members joined the TEA project team to discuss available resources and build community. Participants also joined the conversation about collaborating to advocate for energy efficiency upgrades in our homes.
