The Inflation Reduction Act's Home Energy Rebate Programs include 8.8 billion dollars for energy efficiency rebates. States have until January 2025 to apply for funding from the national Department of Energy, and states are required to hold public input hearings to inform their applications. The Midwest Building Decarbonization Coalition (MWBDC) held a version of this training in January 2024, and as states continue to announce their public input session dates, will be holding it live again. This interactive workshop will prepare you to attend these public input hearings and advocate for accessible and equitable rebate programs.
MWBDC will be walking through how to craft your input, confidently relay your message, and what you can expect at the hearing. Ahead of the training, print out their talking points document. Together, you will be taking notes so that once it's time for you to attend the public hearing, you'll be prepared, confident, and ready to go!
