Fuel Assistance
Available Nov. 1 - Apr. 30 (occasional
extensions into May)
As
heating costs continue to rise, many of us struggle to
pay our fuel bills, putting our
well-being - and our
wallets - at risk.
If
your total household income falls within our guidelines,
Energy Services can help you pay your heating bills
during those cold winter months.
Speak with an Energy Services
representative about program availability.
|
Note: Fuel Assistance benefit amounts
vary by household income. Please call to learn about
your eligibility.
