RELIABLE INTERNET ACCESS SINCE 1934 Program helps families with heating costs Help is available for families that struggle to make ends meet, as rising fuel prices add to their financial worries over the cold winter months. Pennsylvania’s Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) has start- ed accepting applications for the 2004-05 winter heating season. Administered by the state Department of Public Welfare, the federally-funded LIHEAP program helps low-income households pay for a variety of home heating fuel sources and furnace repairs in the winter. About 350,000 households will participate in the 2004-05 pro- gram. Applicants do not have to be on public assistance or own a home to qualify. The program provides cash grants or crisis grants, depend- ing on the household’s circum- stances. The cash grant pro- gram is designed to help fami- lies pay their home heating bills. Cash grants are based on income, family size, type of heating fuel and heating regions. Crisis grants of up to $300 are given to families with heating emergencies, such as mechanical breakdowns or unexpected fuel shortages. The deadline to apply for assistance is March 24. To qual- ify, households must have a total income at or below 135 percent of the federal income poverty level. For example, one- or two-person households with income limits of $12,569 and $16,862, respectively, may qualify for the program. A family of four with an annual income of up to $25,448 may qualify. For more details about income limits, contact LIHEAP. Applications for LIHEAP are available at county assistance offices, local utility companies and community service agen- cies, such as Area Agencies on Aging or Community Action Agencies. Families can also apply for LIHEAP cash grants online ) www.compass.state.pa.us. most counties, individuals seeking crisis’ grants should contact their county assistance office. In addition to proof of income and household size, applicants must provide a recent bill or statement from their fuel dealer showing the type of fuel they use.
