DENVER — An additional $500,000 in funding is available this winter for low-income Coloradans who can't afford to repair their non-working home heating system, according to Energy Outreach Colorado (EOC).
EOC, the nonprofit that administers the statewide Crisis Intervention Program (CIP), said it has a total of $2.5 million in federal funding from Colorado’s Low-Income Energy Assistance Program (LEAP) for use between Nov. 1, 2015 and Oct. 30, 2016. Families and individuals who qualify to receive LEAP assistance are eligible for CIP.
