Note: Some areas of the state have exhausted the LIHEAP energy assistance funding for the current program year.
If you are a natural gas customer of Nicor, Ameren, Peoples Gas, or North Shore Gas and you have not received a LIHEAP benefit since September 2024 then you can visit the local agency in your county to sign up for a discount on your monthly natural gas bill. You can find the agency for your county by copying and pasting the link below:
