Indiana's Energy Assistance Program provides one-time financial assistance to low-income households, helping them maintain their utility services during the winter heating season. This program helps prevent utility companies from shutting off home heating services to low-income families during the cold winter months.
Homeowners and renters, including those whose heating costs are included in the rent, are eligible to apply. Eligibility is based on household size and the gross annual income of every household member 18 years of age or older.
This program is specifically designed for moderate- to low-income households. There are income eligibility requirements, and benefit amounts vary based on application details.
