| The following are the
benefits and eligibility guidelines for the Emergency HEAP Program that
starts November 1, 2011. This is a one time heating
assistance initiative that helps low-income Ohioans with their heating
bills. To qualify, your circumstances must be considered an
emergency.
Households must have a 10 day supply or
less of bulk fuel OR have a ten day shut off notice from a metered
utility company. Households are eligible to receive E-HEAP funds to
restore or continue their utility services.
COME PREPARED!!!!
Applicants will be required to have proof of
income for the past 13 weeks or 12 months.
If a customer has a shut off and wants to get back on PIPP Plus, they
must be current with everything. If a customer is behind on PIPP,
they must pay an additional $50. This cannot be paid out of
E-HEAP.
Assistance
is by appointment! Please call to make your appointment.
Customers can be served as walk-ins
7:30 and 10:00 each day, Monday through Friday. The first 25
signed in individuals will be worked in among the scheduled appointments
as time permits.
