The Low Income Home Energy Assistance program is called LIHEAP. They assist low income people and families with their heating and cooling bills. This program is therefore, a year long program that is available 12 months a year.
To qualify for the LIHEAP assistance, you need to qualify. We provide the current Federal Poverty Rates nationwide below.
You are automatically qualified for LIHEAP assistance if you participate in the SNAP food stamps program, TANF Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, or the SSI program through Social Security.
| Persons In Family | Earnings (100% Fed Poverty Guideline) |
| 1 | $15,060 |
| 2 | $20,440 |
| 3 | $25,820 |
| 4 | $31,200 |

*Alaska and Hawaii have different rates for HUD federal poverty guidelines.
These numbers above represent 100% of the Federal Poverty Rate. In order to get legal aid from some offices, they use a sliding fee scale. When they use a sliding fee scale, the 100% rate can be different than 100%. In those cases, using for example a 200% federal poverty level, you will only need double the 100% number listed above to 200%.
Have you used the Lincoln County Bluegrass Community Action Partnership LIHEAP service before? If so, please help our website users by answer these questions below.
Every situation I have had with them if their not authorized to pay certain deposits, their hands are tied but they will take the time to help you find another agency that may be able to help.
Polite and patient when some of their applicants aren't. I've never had problem with them calling on time, for scheduled appointment.
I always have, that way if you've been there prior they have all your info waiting.
They won't get on it with you if you don't go into the office. Laziest people I've ever seen.

Yes I have used it before and more than 1 winter. I would have probably froze to death without them helping me with my heating bill. My home is 1971 and not insulated, so yes I do recommend asking for help, in the long run all it cost you is getting few forms they need and after applications filed and signed wouldn't hurt to say thank you and mean it.

They won't answer the phones when you call. You set up a team meeting for an hour and they don't get on.
