Electricity costs tend to be at their highest during the summer months - so families struggle to pay their utility bills during this time. But there’s good news! Operation Fuel has funds available to help struggling families – right now – with programs for year-round energy assistance, water assistance, and homeless intervention and prevention, too.
 
Households whose income does not exceed 75% of the State Median Income Guidelines may qualify for assistance. Please click here for the Connecticut State Median Income for household sizes 1 through 8 for 2020-2021.

To apply online, visit Operation Fuel's secure portal here.



You can also connect with Community Action of Western CT here or call 203-744-4700.

Thanks to last year’s Take Back Our Grid Act (H.B. 7006), the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (PURA) is now empowered to direct fine money, paid by utility companies and suppliers for violations, to Operation Fuel, 100% of which goes directly to supporting residents in need.
