Water Assistance Program/LIHWAP - Opening Again on July 10, 2023
Posted on: July 3, 2023 - 10:36am
The Low-Income Household Water Assistance Program (LIHWAP) is a temporary emergency program to help low-income families pay overdue water bills. LIHWAP is a grant. You do not have to repay it.
The program is currently closed but will be accepting applications beginning July 10, 2023 through August 11, 2023
LIHWAP crisis grants may be available if you have an emergency situation and are in jeopardy of losing your water service. You can receive one crisis grant for your drinking water service and one crisis grant for your wastewater service, up to $2,500 each. Crisis situations include:
- Past-due water bills.
- Termination of utility service.
- Danger of having utility service terminated (received a notice that service will be shut off within the next 60 days).
For more information regarding LIHWAP, please check the PA Department of Human Services Website.
