In its first decade, M=POWER partnered with CT’s workforce boards, energy conservation companies, and community organizations to create an innovative pathway to employment in the clean energy sector. Our team is made up of licensed social workers, BPI building scientists, and other professionals who are passionate about supporting sustainability, energy efficiency, health, and wellness in our community.
Bring the proven M=POWER model to scale across 27 Financially Distressed Zones in Connecticut. We have our eye on expanding M=POWER to serve ALL 27 Environmental Justice (EJ) communities in the state of Connecticut, and in order to do so, we are seeking upwards of $55 million that we will leverage to retrofit a minimum of 100 homes in EACH of the 27 Environmental Justice communities.
Please support our mission, our vision, and our work by donating.
194+ participants trained
500+ nationally recognized certifications earned
94% job placement rate, with 87% retention over time
Wraparound support included housing assistance, ID recovery, transportation, legal aid, and childcare
But these aren’t just numbers. These are human transformations.
A Movement Built on People:
These are just a few of the thousands of stories we hold.
Stories of children who discover they matter. Stories of workers who find not just a paycheck, but a purpose. Stories of families who finally feel warm, safe, and seen.
In every retrofit, every lesson, and every training, there is a beating heart. And in every heart, there is a story worth telling.
Because this isn’t just energy work. This is justice work. This is people work. This is the work of transformation.

We help Hartford families create safer, healthier, and more energy-efficient homes at little or no cost through community-supported retrofit programs. "We do the RIGHT thing. Not just the EASY thing."
A bold energy equity initiative by a 501(c)(3) minority-led nonprofit, Efficiency For All (EFA), reaching higher to transform Environmental Justice (EJ) communities across Connecticut.

EFA’s M=POWER 2.0 Energy Resilience Retrofit Pilot Program (ERRP) with DOH had a press conference last week, on Monday, July 14th. The streets were filled with state representatives, and we can’t wait to replicate our work- again and again- in more Connecticut communities!

M=POWER is not just a program. It’s a life-changing intervention.
It finds people where they are—often at their most vulnerable—and offers not just training, but hope. It turns hardship into purpose, and potential into progress. Whether someone is reentering society from incarceration, aging out of foster care, surviving homelessness, or simply overlooked by traditional workforce systems, M=POWER says: You matter. You belong. You can lead.
