WATER BILL ASSISTANCE
The Minnesota Department of Commerce is expanding the Minnesota Energy Assistance Program to pay water and sewer bills for Minnesotans who apply and qualify for energy assistance. Commerce is using $15 million in additional American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding designated for water assistance. Commerce has expanded income eligibility to help more Minnesotans than ever before pay costs to heat and cool their homes, power their lights and electricity, provide fuel delivery, and, if needed, repair or replace homeowners’ heating systems. Water assistance applications available now. More information below. Please share!
Please note: We will have translated information on Water Assistance in Spanish, Somali and Hmong available the week of September 27th. We will resend this information with the translated material then.
