Preparing for Winter with Heating Assistance
Office of Public Guardian
Winter is coming! Is your ward entitled to energy assistance to assist with offsetting the cost of the heating bill? The Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) is a federal grant administered by the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services. LIHEAP provides heating assistance from October 1 – March 31 each year for eligible persons. You can apply on your ward’s behalf through AccessNebraska online or by phone.
