NOTICE:

Dear Community Members and Stakeholders,

The Department of Human Services (DHS) is nearing the completion of important system upgrades designed to enhance our service delivery of the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP). These updates are vital for sustaining and advancing the quality and efficiency of our services to better serve our region. However, during this transition, some community members may experience brief delays in the processing of the LIHEAP applications.   

We sincerely appreciate your understanding and patience as we work through these state system enhancements. We are committed to providing the highest standard of service for our communities and we will be making every effort to minimize any disruptions, ensuring a smooth transition.

If you have any questions or need additional information, please reach out to the DHS office at (404) 657-3426.
