LIHEAP Fall Subsidy enrollment opens November 6th at Community Action Agencies.
One-Time Home Heating Assistance Available to Low-Income Households in all 120 Counties.
FRANKFORT, Ky. (October 31, 2023): Starting November 6, Kentucky households can apply for the LowIncome Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Fall Subsidy. Applications will be accepted on a first-come,
first-serve basis through December 15, 2023, or until designated funds have been expended.
LIHEAP Fall Subsidy is available through Kentucky’s Community Action Network. Individuals should apply
through their local Community Action Agency office. To locate your local office, please call 800-456-3452 or visit
www.capky.org/network.
LIHEAP Fall Subsidy provides households with a one-time benefit, ranging from $34 to $274, depending on
housing category, fuel type used for heating, and income level. Benefit can be applied towards home heating cost for
electric, natural gas, propane, coal, wood, or fuel oil.
Benefits are paid directly to the household’s fuel vendor. Prior LIHEAP assistance does not impact a household’s
eligibility. Households must meet eligibility requirements, including income eligibility of up to and including 150%
of the Federal Poverty Guidelines.
Community Action Kentucky administers LIHEAP in partnership with the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family
Services who receive the funding as a pass-through block grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services. For more information about LIHEAP, including contact information for all local Community Action
agencies, please visit the Community Action Kentucky website at www.CAPKY.org.
