Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Fall Subsidy

The Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Fall Subsidy enrollment will begin on November 5 and run through December 20, 2024.

The Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Fall Subsidy is designed to help offset the cost of home heating across various fuel types, including Electric, Natural Gas, Propane, Coal, Wood, and Fuel Oil.

Applications will be accepted during the enrollment period, or until designated funds are depleted on a first-come, first-serve basis. Income eligibility for the program is up to and including 150% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines.

Eligible households can apply for a one-time benefit depending on housing category, fuel type, and income level to offset the cost of their household’s home heating costs. The benefits are paid directly to the household's energy vendor. Interested households should contact their local Community Action Agency office to apply.

• Proof of Social Security Number or Permanent Residence card (Green Card) for each member of the household.
