HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Kansas Gas Service is partnering with Kansas agencies to assist customers with completing Low Income Energy Assistance Program (LIEAP) applications. LIEAP, administered through the Kansas Department of Children and Families, helps low-income households pay a portion of their home energy costs through an annual benefit.
Kansas Gas Service representatives will be available at several community events to help fill out the required application forms and answer customers’ questions about their natural gas accounts.
The Hutchinson event is Jan. 10 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Salvation Army at 700 North Walnut.
You do not need to be a Kansas Gas Customer to get help with your application.
“We know that Kansas residents are facing challenges with increases in costs across the board, including higher utility bills,” said Abbey Frye, Kansas Gas Service director of customer service. “Our goal at these community events is to ensure they are aware of the various available payment options and resources and to assist qualifying customers with their LIEAP applications.”
The 2023 LIEAP application period is from Tuesday, January 3 to Friday, March 31.
