Mount Ida Area Chamber of Commerce issued the following announcement on July 24.
This program will assist with Electric bills only. Both Regular and Crisis assistance will be available.
The Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) helps keep families safe and healthy through initiatives that assist families with energy costs. We provide federally funded assistance in managing costs associated with home energy bills and energy crises.
LIHEAP can help you stay cool in the summer through programs that reduce the risk of health and safety problems that arise from unsafe cooling practices.
CADC operates the LIHEAP program in the following counties in Arkansas; Calhoun, Clark, Columbia, Dallas, Hempstead, Hot Spring, Howard, Lafayette, Little River, Lonoke, Miller, Montgomery, Nevada, Ouachita, Pike, Pulaski, Saline, Sevier and Union.
In effort to minimize the spread of Covid-19, each facility will enforce guidelines pertaining to application submission; please check with your local office for these guidelines.
Only the applicant will be allowed to enter the facility. Additional family members and or friends must remain in the vehicle or outside of the facility. All applicants must agree to submit to screening before being allowed to enter. Due to restrictions on the number of people allowed in the facility at a time, applicants should prepare for longer than usual wait times.
