The Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) has started the Department’s 2021 Low Income Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) much earlier this program year, from July 27 through June 30, 2021, and longer than previous program years. Additional state and federal funds have been dedicated to low-income energy assistance during the Covid crisis and resulting historic unemployment rates. There will be NO PRIORITY GROUPS this LIHEAP program year.
Please contact your local agency as soon as possible to see if you qualify for assistance.
