Dear Salisbury Resident,
During the fifth annual Heating Assistance Awareness Month this November, Salisbury is partnering with Eversource to raise awareness of the programs available to help pay or lower heating bills, and keep homes warm this winter.
If you or someone you know is struggling to keep up with their energy bills, now is the time to get assistance this winter heating season. There is a plan for everyone, including:
Connecticut Energy Assistance Program (CEAP):
-
Apply to get up to $645 towards your heating bill from CEAP. Apply for CEAP online at CT.gov/heatinghelp or through your local Community Action Agency (CAA). Find your local CAA at 211.ct.org or call 211.
Energy Efficiency:
- Take advantage of Eversource’s energy efficiency programs, incentives and tips to help you save money and reduce your overall energy use during the colder months. Renters need permission from their landlords to participate.
Winter Protection:
- If you provide proof of qualifying household income or public assistance benefits you receive for at least one household member, your service cannot be shut off between November 1 and May 1.
To find the right options for you, visit eversource.com/billhelp to learn more about these programs. You can also find your local CAA for assistance at 211ct.org or call 211. Please help us raise awareness by sharing this important information with family, friends and neighbors. Let’s work together to lower your heating bills and stay warm this winter.
For information about these programs, visit eversource.com/billhelp or call us at 800-286-2828.
