Who it's for
The Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) helps income-eligible households in Grays Harbor County pay home heating bills, with emergency help for shut-offs. The Washington Department of Commerce funds the program, and Coastal Community Action Program (CCAP) takes applications and delivers benefits for this county. Older adults and people with disabilities are prioritized. Assistance is usually available once a year while funds last. Call 1-360-533-5100 to apply.
LIHEAP is income-tested against Washington's published limits and runs on seasonal application windows while funds last, so this shows as a may-qualify result. Households with a member 60+ or with a disability are prioritized.
