Written by Andre on January 4, 2022
Governor Kathy Hochul announced there is help available for low and middle-income families for heating this winter. There is $90 million available in federal funding for home heating this year.
Homes that use natural gas for heating could get $465 if you are eligible. If you use kerosene, oil, or propane you may be eligible for $965 in benefits. Both amounts have increased since last year by 33% and 43%.
New York State will begin to accept applications on Monday for emergency benefits for families who used regular benefits and need emergency assistance.
You can fill out the application through social services in-person locally for HEAP. Click here for more information and where to go.
