Do you need help keeping your home warm this year? The Winter Crisis Program is here to help and runs 11/1/2025 to 3/31/2026
Eligible households may receive a one-time payment towards:
*Utility service that is currently off or in a disconnect status.
*A payment to establish new service.
*Bulk fuel delivery (propane, fuel oil, wood, coal) up to maximum benefit amount.
*Up to $1500 for furnace repairs.
Each household member will need to bring proof of income for the last 30 days; birthdates and social security numbers of everyone in the household; proof of citizenship or legal residency; and proof of disability (if applicable); and most recent gas/electric bills. When scheduling your appointment, please have your account numbers available in order for a hold to be placed on those accounts.
Please note that utility companies will only allow one hold for disconnection notices and it cannot be extended. A “no-show” to your scheduled appointment may result in your utilities being shut off.
