Residents struggling with their home heating bills may apply for assistance from the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program LIHEAP.
LIHEAP is a federally funded program that helps individuals and families pay their heating bills through home heating energy assistance grants. It also provides crisis grants to help in the event of an emergency or if a resident is in danger of losing his or her heat due to broken equipment, lack of fuel or termination of utility service.
The income eligibility guidelines for the 20023-2024 LIHEAP program are $21,870 for an individual, $29,580 for a couple and $45,000 for a family of four. Residents may apply for LIHEAP online or by contacting their local county assistance office.
