18m agoA program is helping ease the pain of utility costs during the winter months - and you may be eligible.
The Home Energy Assistance Program, also known as HEAP, is a federal program offering financial assistance from $21 to almost $1,000.
Eligibility is based on a number of factors, including:
- Income;
- Household size;
- Primary heating source;
- The presence of a household member who is under age 6, age 60 or older or permanently disabled.
HEAP representatives say a one-person household would be eligible if their monthly income was less than $3,322.
Applications are now open. You can apply online, in-person at a site, by mail or by phone at 718-557-1319.
The Mailing address is 1401, Church Street Station, New York, NY, 10008
