COMMUNITY SERVICES BLOCK GRANT (CSBG)

The Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) assures that funds are made available to support activities designed to assist low-income families and individuals. The grant helps to remove obstacles and helps to solve problems that block the achievement of self-sufficiency for families and individuals seeking to secure and retain meaningful employment or an adequate education. Also, Health, Nutrition, and Safety components afford the opportunity to provide health and hygiene supplies, meals and other health safety equipment such as fans and air conditioners for senior citizens and other low-income eligible people throughout our service communities.

LOW INCOME HOME ENERGY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (LIHEAP)

The Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Grant provides appropriate and timely assistance to eligible households to pay home energy bills and to assist with other energy related services. Households that consume energy for residential purposes and meet the requirements of the program will be eligible for assistance. Emphasis is placed on the elderly and disabled.
