The deadline is extended for low-income Purchase area residents to enroll for funding to help pay heating bills.
Crisis funding through the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program- or LIHEAP is extended through April 30 or until funds run out.
Applicants must meet income eligibility requirements and must have received a “disconnect” notice from their utility company. Applicants can also be within four days of running out of a non-metered fuel, such as propane.
People can apply at a local LIHEAP outreach office.
