📢 Energy Assistance Program Update

We understand how difficult it is for those struggling with utility costs, and we want to be transparent about the current status of our Energy Assistance Program. At this time, we are completely out of funds and are unable to provide further assistance beyond accepting applications for a waitlist in case additional funding becomes available.

We know this is frustrating and heartbreaking news, and we truly wish we could do more to help right now. If the state provides additional funding, it likely won’t be until the summer. Should that happen, we will immediately post updates here on our page.

In the meantime, we encourage anyone in need to still submit an application so that if funds do become available, we already have your information on file.

We see you, we hear you, and we are advocating for more resources to assist our community. Thank you for your patience and understanding. 💙
