Heat, Energy & Fuel

If you are having a hard time paying for heat or electricity, you are not alone. It’s not an uncommon problem for many families in York County. That’s why YCCAC offers a wide range of fuel and energy assistance programs so you can be warm, safe, healthy, and secure in your home. And, our weatherization services can even help you save money!

Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP) is a program that provides a fixed amount of funding to Maine each year from the federal government. Based on MaineHousing’s most current projections, Community Action Agencies, including York County Community Action, will stop taking applications for the program at 5:00PM on March 1, 2024.

HEAP has already used most of the available funding. MaineHousing expects to use the remaining funds on applications in the pipeline.

MaineHousing will make every effort to provide assistance to eligible applicants who submit a completed application by the deadline, but cannot guarantee that assistance will be available.
