FUEL ASSISTANCE


Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP), known commonly as Fuel Assistance, provides income-eligible households with help paying a portion of winter heating bills. Eligibility is based on gross income, household size, and vulnerability to heating costs.

Fuel Assistance can assist with any primary heat type: oil, natural gas, electricity, propane, kerosene, wood or coal.  This is available for all residents in Hull, not only people 60 and older.

Please call the Hull Senior Center at (781) 925-1239 x 207 for Fuel Assistance questions, to fill out application and assistance in filling out the application. Application season runs from November 1st-April 30th.
