Heating Assistance (HEAP)

The Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP) is a federally funded program that helps income-eligible homeowners and renters pay a portion of their annual heating expenses. KVCAP serves Kennebec and Somerset counties.  The program provides a one-time, per-season, direct payment to heat vendors for homes heated with oil, kerosene, wood, propane, natural gas, electricity, and other fuels.
