If you are having difficulty paying your energy bills, you may be able to get help through the Energy Assistance Program (EAP). EAP is a funded program that provides assistance to low-income households to meet their energy needs. The program is administered by the states, and each state has different eligibility requirements.
To be eligible for EAP, you must have a low income and meet other criteria. If you qualify, you can get help paying your energy bills, weatherizing your home and making energy-related repairs.
EAP provides a one-time annual benefit that can help you with the high cost of home energy and can help you if you are disconnected or about to be disconnected. However, an EAP benefit will not cover all of your annual heating and electric costs, so you must continue to pay your bills regularly.
LIHEAP can help you stay warm in the winter and cool in the summer through programs that reduce your heating and cooling bills.
