We are so proud of Krista and her dedication to Community Action. Looking forward to celebrating you in St. Louis!

We're so proud to celebrate Krista Groves, PACS's CSBG Director, on her achievements in the Certified Community Action Professional (CCAP) program! 💙

Krista's Independent Writing Assignment was selected for inclusion in the Lois J. Carson Library of Excellence, a distinction earned by just two people nationwide this year. Her work will now serve as a resource for future CCAP candidates and Community Action professionals across the country. On top of that, Krista has been invited to present at NCAP's Annual Convention at CCAP Center Stage, where she'll share her CCAP journey and the lessons behind her writing.

We can't wait to see Krista walk across the stage at the Community Action Conference in early September. Stay tuned, we have another PACS CCAP to celebrate soon!

Kentucky households can apply for LIHEAP Summer Subsidy from August 3 - September 11, 2026, to help offset cooling costs with a one-time electric benefit. Applications will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis, or until funds are depleted.

Interested households should contact their local Community Action Agency, based on county of residence, to determine eligibility and complete the application process. To locate the office serving your county, visit www.capky.org/network or call 800-456-3452.

Households must meet eligibility requirements, including household income of up to and including 150 percent of the Federal Poverty Guidelines to qualify for assistance. Benefits are paid directly to the household’s electric vendor.

No disconnect notice, past-due bill, or eviction notice is required to apply. Assistance received during previous LIHEAP components does not affect eligibility.
