Do you know of someone who needs help paying their high utility bills this winter?
The Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP) is designed to help eligible Ohioans meet the high costs of home heating. If they are eligible for assistance, the amount of the one-time HEAP benefit will depend on how many people live in the home, total household income, and the primary fuel source. In most cases, the one-time benefit will be a credit applied to your energy bill by your utility company (or fuel vendor).
