The federally funded Low-Income Home Energy Program (LIHEAP), also known as the Fuel Assistance Program (FAP), provides qualified households with assistance in paying their heating bills during the winter heating season. Community Action Partnership of Strafford County manages applications and assistance for residents and families of Strafford County. If you or a family member needs help paying heating and electric bills, even if you don’t think you qualify, don’t hesitate to apply!

Beginning November 1, the fuel season opens and CAPSC is able to begin distributing financial assistance to vendors on behalf of enrolled households.
