Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)
Eligibility | Links | Contact Us

Eligibility

  1. An initial eligibility for your household will be determined at the time of making an energy appointment
  2. If your household appears to be eligible and if there are funds available, an appointment will be scheduled.
  3. If your household appears not to be eligible for energy assistance, a referral for an appropriate resource can be  given.

The amount of assistance varies and is based on:

  • your household’s actual annual heating costs
  • family size
  • the type of housing
  • household income

The total household income must be at or below 125% of the federal poverty guidelines.

Households are eligible for this program once per year (for the purposes of this program, the year starts Oct. 1 and ends Sept. 30).
