The Operation Fuel Winter Program will begin accepting applications on December 1, 2016. The program provides assistance of up to $500 for heating expenses for households in Connecticut with incomes at or below 60% of the State Median Income guidelines who are in crisis. Local fuel banks assess client eligibility and make payments to vendors. In order to receive assistance from the program, households must initiate an application through their local Operation Fuel partner agency.
