Our Summer Energy Assistance Program will run from July 19 until July 30 or until funds are exhausted. Please note that, as of Monday, July 26, all funds for this program have been exhausted and the final two walk-in days have been cancelled.

We cannot begin making appointments until July 19, which will also be a walk in day in both McLean County and Livingston County. This program pays $150 on electric bills for at risk households:

• seniors 60 and over;
• persons receiving SS, SSI or VA disability payments or who have pending documentation;
• those households with a child aged 2 or under; and
• households where someone has a serious medical condition aggravated by extreme heat – they must provide a Dr’s letter dated within the last ninety days.

There is no reconnection assistance with this program and no cash payments for renters where the landlord pays the electricity. Income guidelines remain the same as last year.

Please contact a MCCA office for additional information or call on or after July 19 for an appointment – we will post additional walk in days as they are determined.
