UPDATE: LIMITED FUNDING- APPLICATION WAITLIST
Due to limited funding, all Energy Assistance applications currently in process will be placed on a wait list. Your application will be reviewed for eligibility. If you are eligible for the program, your benefit will be released if and when the funds become available and in the order your application was received. No assistance will be added to your account at this time, but you will be notified if additional funds become available.
We encourage you to explore other available resources and programs that may provide additional support. Many utility companies provide their own energy assistance to customers, and you may wish to speak directly to your utility provider before pursuing other options. You can also dial 211 for referrals to local resources in your community.
Moratorium protection is still in effect between December 1 and March 15. During Moratorium, individuals with municipally-owned, privately-owned, or cooperatively-owned utilities who have applied to the Energy Assistance Program may not be disconnected, as long as the account is in good standing. Moratorium protection applies once a household submits an application and allows the Local Service Provider time to determine eligibility, so please inform your utility provider if you have submitted an application for assistance and you are scheduled for disconnection.
