LIHEAP Financial Assistance

LIHEAP (Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program) offers financial assistance and peace of mind to tri-state area residents. Cash grants and crisis grants are available to low-income families in danger of losing heating. Eligible households may apply for these grants through the PA Department of Human Services yearly when the program opens.

 LIHEAP runs from 11/1/22 to 4/28/23 

Anyone who received a LIHEAP grant last year was sent a pre-season LIHEAP application or postcard in October so they could apply online or using a mobile app. Even if you received LIHEAP the prior year, you MUST RE-APPLY every year! 

• Customers should mail a completed application to the address listed for their county of residence. 
• Remember: A paper application isn’t necessary to apply for LIHEAP.  Customers may submit an application online through the Department of Human Services’ COMPASS website at www.compass.state.pa.us. or directly at LIHEAP
• Questions about LIHEAP or about completing an application can be directed to the LIHEAP Client Helpline at 1-866-857-7095
