HEAP Facts and Resources

✅The HEAP application is FREE! No fee is required to apply and we offer free help to complete applications. Beware of scams charging an “application fee” to help submit an application.

✅Even if heat is included in the cost of rent, you may still be eligible for home energy assistance.

✅HEAP provides assistance for all sources of heat, including oil, electricity, natural gas, propane, kerosene, wood and coal.

✅Upon approval, payments are made directly to your heating company.

✅You can also check income eligibility and benefit levels. Please note that benefit levels are dependent on funding allocated to Massachusetts by the US Department of Health and Human Services. Housing subsidies will also determine specific benefit levels.
