Alan Walker is a hero. He's a lot of other things too (namely, the executive director of the Chelan-Douglas Community Action Council and president of the Washington Community Action Partnership), but above all else, the work he does is essential to helping thousands meet their basic needs. Right now, the cost of those basic needs are increasing dramatically and rapidly, and the cost of electricity is among them. With 9 out of 10 residents in the Northwest now ranking cost as their primary energy concern, we hosted Alan on the podcast to learn what challenges the people he serves face, where energy costs factor into those challenges, and why keeping those costs low is non-negotiable for thousands in our region.
