Low Income Energy Assistance Program (LIEAP)

Posted on by

LIEAPDo you need help paying your heating bill this winter?

Mecklenburg County is offering help to residents this winter by providing Low Income Energy Assistance Program (LIEAP) funds to eligible households. LIEAP is a federal program that assists low-income households with their immediate heating needs so they won’t have to choose between heating their homes and buying other necessities. You do not have to be at risk of disconnection or delinquency to take advantage of this one-time, direct vendor payment in the amount of $300, $400, or $500.

This program is available from December 1 – March 31. For more information, please visit the Mecklenburg County website: MeckNC.gov/ENERGY.
