The Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) is available for the 2020/2021 winter season. LIHEAP is designed to help eligible low-income households supplement part of their winter heating service bills.

For more information, or to pickup an application for the 2020 season please contact Shakira Askew at (508) 477-0208 ext. 159 or at shakira.askew@mwtribe-NSN.gov. Applications are also available every Tuesday during the Lunch and Learn program from 12:30-1:30 PM at the Community and Government Center.

LIHEAP is a federally funded program that helps low-income households with their home heating bills. Income eligibility is based on “Net Income” (after all deductions, including max of $2,000 towards rent/mortgage, but except for 401K, IRA, and any other saving or retirement programs). A household deductible guide with income limits is included with the LIHEAP application.
