CAP Taking Senior/Disabled Applicants For Energy Program

Mid-Columbia Community Action is currently taking applications from seniors and people with disabilities for the Low Income Energy Assistance Program.  The program uses federal funds to provide assistance with winter heating bills through a one-time payment that goes directly to the utility.  Community Action Executive Director Jim Slusher says they sent notifications to past clients in October.  If a senior or disabled person in Hood River, Wasco, and Sherman counties have not received a notification and believe they may be eligible for assistance, call CAP.  In The Dalles the number for Community Action is 541-298-5131, while in Hood River it is 541-386-4027.  Slusher says they will begin to take calls from the general population to schedule appointments on December 3.
