Offers bill assistance to eligible households for their home heating and energy bills. Households must be income eligible to receive assistance.  Depending on the time of year, they may help with the electricity, natural gas, propane, heating oil, and wood bills. Households can receive assistance once from each program during program year (typically Oct-Sept).  A very limited number of crisis appointments are available on a weekly basis. To qualify for a crisis, you must be facing disconnection within the current week or without heat (less than 10% propane/oil, or less than 7-day supply of wood).
