Energy Crisis
LIHEAP provides different programs and funding for emergency assistance; particularly if energy is shut off already or is about to be shut off due to a source of heating needing replacement or repair. It also assists with the replacement of broken windows that may be causing a substantial energy burden or leaking water heaters which are causing health and safety issues.
In NO HEAT situations, we can provide portable electric heating appliances while your main source of heat (furnace, boiler, etc.) is being repaired.
If you have already applied for regular Weatherization Assistance, and an emergency situation arises, please complete the attached Energy Crisis Application and return it to us while advising that you are already on the waiting list for Weatherization.
If you have not applied for Weatherization Assistance and need emergency help, you can apply by completing the Energy Crisis Application. We encourage you to apply for Weatherization Assistance also as it will maximize the benefit you receive from the services.
