CEDA is now open for all families seeking help in the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP). There are certain requirements that one must abide by to be eligible.
LIHEAP is designed to assist income-eligible households with energy services, in the form of a one-time benefit payment to the utility companies that is applied directly to the household’s energy bills. The amount of the payment is determined by income, household size, and fuel type. Please call the Energy Services Hotline for more information.
Furnace Assistance is designed to restore the home’s heating system back to a safe and effective operation. Assistance is only available to approved households that has or are eligible to receive a LIHEAP benefit and whose heating systems are not operational or have been red-tagged by their utility company. The services are free of charge for income qualifying households. Renters are not eligible to apply. Households are eligible to apply for Furnace assistance during their priority period.
Please call AAFS at (708) 599-2237, to schedule an appointment to help apply for the programs. See the chart below for requirements:
