Help Available for Paying Winter
Heating Bills PLOWS Council on Aging is taking appointments to assist senior citizens with applications to the 2010 Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP). This program is available to assist persons with winter heating costs. The Community Economic Development Association (CEDA) has local responsibility for the program. Applications are forwarded to CEDA for approval and processing on payment. To qualify for LIHEAP, your household must meet financial eligibility guidelines set by federal regulations. Eligibility is based on a household’s income for 30 days preceding the date of application.
Federal guidelines require that specific documentation must be provided with each application. If you believe you may be eligible to apply for this important benefit, please call the PLOWS office for more information or to learn what papers you will need to bring with you. Individuals will be seen by appointment only, no walkins. Call PLOWS at (708) 361-0219 to schedule. |
