Eligible households are encouraged to apply for the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program spring subsidy.
According to the Central Kentucky Community Action Council, applications for LIHEAP are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Benefits are paid directly to the household’s electric vendor. Receiving assistance through other LIHEAP cycles does not affect eligibility.
When applying, all applicants must provide all required documentation which includes proof of Social Security number or a permanent residence card for each household member, proof of income for all household members from the preceding month, your most current electric bill, and the account number and the name on the account for the electric bill.
The deadline to apply is May 22, or when funds run out. Visit your local Community Action office to begin an application. Call 270-692-2136 or visit www.ckcac.org to find your nearest office.
