Resource Spotlight

The Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) provides cash grants to help Pennsylvania families pay their heating bills.


LIHEAP can help you keep your home warm and safe during the coldest seasons. From November 4, 2024, to April 4, 2025, you can apply for a cash grant to help pay your heating bill. You can receive from $200 to $1,000 based on your household size, income, and fuel type. 


The cash grant is a one-time payment and will be sent directly to your utility provider or fuel company to be credited on your bill. 

Are you experiencing an emergency related to your household’s heat? You may be eligible to receive additional funds through a crisis grant. LIHEAP crisis benefits provide assistance for those experiencing:


  • Broken heating equipment or leaking lines that must be fixed or replaced  
  • Lack of fuel
  • The shut off of the  main heating source or secondary heating source (a source that is used to operate the main heating source or used if the main heating source is not working)
  • The danger of being without fuel (less than a 15-day supply) 
  • The danger of having utility service terminated
