The Upper East Tennessee Human Development Agency’s Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Outreach RV will be throughout our region in May helping those needing assistance with their energy bills.
This program helps keep individuals and families safe and healthy through initiatives that assist with energy costs. For those who qualify, a payment is sent directly to the recipient’s utility company and is credited to their bill.
Priority is given to the low-income, energy burdened, disabled, elderly, homes with young children under 6, veterans, and large households. Payments can take up to 90 days to be applied. The following are the locations where the RV will be in May:
You may also visit one of the nine area neighborhood service centers for aid, or simply call (423) 246-6180. LIHEAP is only one of many services that offer to help with self-sufficiency. If you or someone you know needs help, have them contact UETHDA.
