Dear Fellow Vermonter,
With winter upon us, I know many Vermonters across our state are worried about keeping their families and themselves safe and warm through this season. The good news is that assistance is available to help eligible Vermonters, not only afford their heating bills, but light and weatherize their homes, secure furnace and fuel tank repairs and replacements, and help pay for fuel and utilities. There is also emergency heating assistance for Vermonters in immediate need, as well as assistance for Vermonters whose homes, appliances, and heating and water systems sustained damage during the flooding this summer.
My team has put together some information and guidance to help you access and navigate the fuel assistance programs and services that are available to Vermonters across our state. I hope you will read on below to learn more and help spread the word about these resources in your communities.
If you need support or advice in navigating and accessing fuel assistance programs, please don’t hesitate to reach out to your local Community Action Agencies. Click here to find one that serves your area: https://dcf.vermont.gov/contacts/partners/caps
And as always, please don’t hesitate to reach out to my office if you have questions or need assistance. You can reach us HERE or by calling 1-800-339-9834.
