Energy Assistance Programs

Energy Assistance Programs are government or nonprofit initiatives designed to help eligible individuals and families afford their heating and cooling bills. They provide financial support or resources such as grants, discounts, or emergency assistance, primarily aiming to ensure everyone can maintain safe and comfortable living conditions regardless of income. These programs often target low-income households, seniors, and vulnerable populations, helping to reduce energy insecurity and prevent hardships during extreme weather. Eligibility and benefits vary by region, but the goal is to promote equitable access to essential energy services.
