LIHEAP (energy assistance + crisis + weatherization referral) (help paying the energy bill, crisis help with a shutoff, and free weatherization): who qualifies, what you get, how to apply, and what happens next
LIHEAP pays toward a low-income household's heating and cooling bill, helps when the utility threatens a shutoff, and pays for weatherization. It is federal money run in California by the Department of Community Services and Development through local service providers. Apply with the local provider for your ZIP code.
What LIHEAP is, in one paragraph
LIHEAP, the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, is federal money (rule:what_liheap_is) that California's Department of Community Services and Development (CSD) passes to local service providers. It has three parts: HEAP, a one-time payment toward the utility bill (rule:heap); ECIP, crisis help when a household faces a disconnect notice or a dangerous appliance (rule:ecip); and weatherization, free efficiency upgrades (rule:weatherization). California received $236.7 million for Federal Fiscal Year 2026 (rule:funding_ffy2026). Funding is limited, so some eligible households get nothing (rule:limited_funding).
$94 to $1,500
estimated heating assistance benefit, FFY2027 (CSD draft state plan, rule:heating_benefit)
Who may qualify
Income. California's threshold is 60% of the State Median Income (rule:income_threshold). CSD's 2026 table gives the monthly gross limit by household size (rule:income_table):
People in the home
Monthly income at or below
1
$3,331.66
2
$4,356.83
3
$5,382.00
4
$6,407.16
5
$7,432.25
6
$8,457.41
7
$8,649.66
8
$8,841.83
9
$9,034.08
10
$9,226.25
Each person over 10
add $192.21
The local energy agency makes the decision (rule:local_determination).
Who goes first. Providers give extra points to households with someone 60 or older, someone 5 or younger, or someone with a disability, and may prioritize life-threatening emergencies and high energy burden (rule:priority_points).
What it pays (FFY2027 draft plan). Heating: $94 to $1,500 (rule:heating_benefit). Cooling: $246 to $887 (rule:cooling_benefit). Year-round crisis: up to $1,500 (rule:crisis_benefit).
How to apply, and what happens after
Apply with the local service provider for your area. Find it on CSD's map by ZIP code, or call CSD's toll-free help line, (866) 675-6623 (rule:helpline). California 2-1-1 also answers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Bring identity, proof of income and your latest energy bill, and any shutoff notice. If a disconnect notice has arrived, say so first: that is the crisis component (rule:ecip).
The provider decides and, if approved, pays the utility as a credit on your account.
If denied. Appeal in writing to the local provider, which must decide within 15 days of receiving the appeal (rule:appeal_local). If you disagree with that decision, appeal in writing to CSD (rule:appeal_state). No page read states a deadline for filing either appeal.

If the household has a disconnect or shutoff notice, say ECIP (rule:ecip) first and give the exact next step: contact the local provider now. Compare monthly gross income to rule:income_table for the household size. Say plainly that funding is limited and an eligible household may get nothing (rule:limited_funding), and that the local provider decides (rule:local_determination). Report results as: potentially eligible, potentially ineligible, insufficient information, or requires provider determination. Ask for at most two facts at a time, starting with household size and monthly gross income, then any shutoff notice; restate each as a canonical fact line (household.size = 3). Use facts.ontology.related_programs to name other programs the same facts open, and facts.procedure.stages to give the exact next step. Never claim an application was filed. Keep it short.",

"## What LIHEAP is, in one paragraph\n\nLIHEAP, the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, is federal money (rule:what_liheap_is) that California's Department of Community Services and Development (CSD) passes to local service providers. It has three parts: **HEAP**, a one-time payment toward the utility bill (rule:heap); **ECIP**, crisis help when a household faces a disconnect notice or a dangerous appliance (rule:ecip); and **weatherization**, free efficiency upgrades (rule:weatherization). California received $236.7 million for Federal Fiscal Year 2026 (rule:funding_ffy2026). Funding is limited, so some eligible households get nothing (rule:limited_funding).",

},
"## Who may qualify\n\n**Income.** California's threshold is 60% of the State Median Income (rule:income_threshold). CSD's 2026 table gives the monthly gross limit by household size (rule:income_table):\n\n| People in the home | Monthly income at or below |\n| --- | --- |\n| 1 | $3,331.66 |\n| 2 | $4,356.83 |\n| 3 | $5,382.00 |\n| 4 | $6,407.16 |\n| 5 | $7,432.25 |\n| 6 | $8,457.41 |\n| 7 | $8,649.66 |\n| 8 | $8,841.83 |\n| 9 | $9,034.08 |\n| 10 | $9,226.25 |\n| Each person over 10 | add $192.21 |\n\nThe local energy agency makes the decision (rule:local_determination).\n\n**Who goes first.** Providers give extra points to households with someone 60 or older, someone 5 or younger, or someone with a disability, and may prioritize life-threatening emergencies and high energy burden (rule:priority_points).\n\n**What it pays (FFY2027 draft plan).** Heating: $94 to $1,500 (rule:heating_benefit). Cooling: $246 to $887 (rule:cooling_benefit). Year-round crisis: up to $1,500 (rule:crisis_benefit).",
"## What the model on this page can do for you\n\nThis article is also the context of a model you can text or chat with. The buttons under the title open Messages with a note already written, or a chat on this page. The model has read this exact page: the rules above with their source ids, the procedure below, and the other programs the same facts open. It asks for one or two facts at a time, starting with household size and monthly income and whether a shutoff notice has arrived, tells you which rules you pass and which it cannot decide, names the programs you may also qualify for, and gives the exact next step. It has no tools: it cannot apply for you, and it says so. Every message is kept on this build's Ledger.\n\nA screening here is a screening, not a decision. The local service provider decides, and funding runs out.",
"## How to apply, and what happens after\n\nApply with **the local service provider** for your area. Find it on CSD's map by ZIP code, or call CSD's toll-free help line, (866) 675-6623 (rule:helpline). California 2-1-1 also answers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.\n\nBring identity, proof of income and your latest energy bill, and any shutoff notice. **If a disconnect notice has arrived, say so first**: that is the crisis component (rule:ecip).\n\nThe provider decides and, if approved, pays the utility as a credit on your account.\n\n**If denied.** Appeal in writing to the local provider, which must decide within 15 days of receiving the appeal (rule:appeal_local). If you disagree with that decision, appeal in writing to CSD (rule:appeal_state). No page read states a deadline for filing either appeal.",

The page, the Markdown and the machine copy at [/a/california-liheap.json](https://miscsubjects.com/a/california-liheap.json) are three views of it. Its `facts` carry the article's identity and jurisdiction, the procedure with its stages, every rule with its source id and verification status, the fields with their canonical fact names, the ontology edges into the benefits graph, the declared actions, the model's instructions, and the permissions the model has (none). The model's context is served separately at [/a/california-liheap/context](https://miscsubjects.com/a/california-liheap/context): the same object, projected for the model. Every number on this page is in `facts.rules` with a source id; every source carries the exact words copied from the official page and the hash of that page as the verifier fetched it.
