Clients are eligible for assistance with one bill once every six months, depending on funding availability, and must have a disconnection notice.

To make an appointment, please read the following and check the box at the bottom of the page. Scheduling an appointment is not a guarantee that your bill will be paid, fully or even partially.

How ACTS Can Help

We also assist our unsheltered residents with propane.
