Please note that the Alton Township office DOES NOT offer LIHEAP assistance, nor do we process applications.
The latest LIHEAP season began October 1, 2024. Applications are currently open for
older adults (60 years +)
individuals with a disability
families with children under the age of six years and
households that are disconnected from their utilities, have a disconnection notice or have less than 25% in their propane tank.
All other income eligible households can start applying November 1, 2024.
Applications will be taken on a first-come, first-served basis through August 15, 2025, or until funding is exhausted.
Eligibility for this program is based on income and family size.
Income Eligibility:
If your household's combined income for the 30 days prior to application (gross income, before taxes are deducted) is at or below 200% of the federal poverty level*, as shown in the chart below, you may be eligible to receive assistance. If you rent, and your heat is included in the rent, you may be eligible for a LIHEAP benefit.
