Applying for LIHEAP in Illinois


When the budget at home is tight, or you are unable to work due to illness or a disability, 
the LIHEAP program can be a life-saver for your utility bills. LIHEAP is the LOW INCOME HOME and ENERGY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM.


It gives individuals and families a one time credit towards their utility bills. It is a program that is based on the amount of gross income in a household within the past 30 days. The LIHEAP Program can provide assistance for electricity, gas, propane, oil, and even some wood suppliers for those who burn wood to heat their homes.


There are several agencies and non-profit groups across Illinois that provide applications and assistance to help others sign up for the LIHEAP program.
