National Energy Assistance Referral (NEAR) Service


Welcome to our LIHEAP Consumer Support Center. The Center will help you find answers to questions about the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP). In addition, you can provide suggestions on how we might improve our web site to serve you better. In most cases, our Support Center will be able to respond to your question quickly. However, we are not available on weekends and Federal holidays to review any questions needing further clarifications.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION: LIHEAP applications, eligibility, assistance, and benefit levels vary among LIHEAP programs. The federal government does not send or take applications for LIHEAP assistance. You must contact your State agency, Indian trbe/tribal organizations, or Insular area for information on qualifying for LIHEAP assistance. A number of State LIHEAP offices provide toll free numbers and web sites for public inquiries.

In addition, you may contact the National Energy Assistance Referral (NEAR) project. NEAR is a free service for persons who want information on where to apply for LIHEAP help. NEAR can be contacted by e-mail energyassistance@ncat.org (please include your city, county and state along with your e-mail message) or by using NEAR's toll-free phone number 1-866-674-6327 (or 1-866-NRG-NEAR).
