You may receive help through the Energy Assistance Program
The Energy Assistance Program through Western Indiana Community Action Agency, Inc. began on November 1. This federally funded program is designed to help low-income families with the high costs of home energy. Income eligible families are provided a one-time benefit to their heating and electric accounts to offset some of the cost of utility bills during the winter months.
Application may be made by downloading an application at: www.wicaa.org/energy.html, stopping in to one of our offices or calling to request an application.
Appointments are not needed unless heating and/or electric service has been disconnected or a notice of disconnection has been received.
