Home Energy Assistance Program Offers Additional Funding to Dutchess County Residents

Dutchess County residents who need help to pay their home heating expenses can apply for Dutchess County HEAP Plus, a new program funded by Dutchess County Government and administered in partnership with United Way of the Dutchess-Orange Region. Individuals/families can receive two heating benefit payments. The HEAP Plus program provides $750,000 in funding to assist vulnerable families and seniors who may not be able to pay their heating bills due to the reduction in HEAP benefits. Additionally, assistance is also available for residents who are slightly above the federal HEAP eligibility requirements.

Specific income requirements are available at here.

For more information or for applications, visit http://www.uwdor.org/node/384. Residents should contact the Dutchess County Dept. of Community and Family Services at 60 Market Street, Poughkeepsie, NY 12601 or call (845) 486-3249.
