SCAM ALERT! This screenshotted social media post is a scam. HLC warns constituents to be aware of scams and online accounts pretending to provide benefits from the Massachusetts Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP) and other HLC programs.

BE ADVISED: This screenshotted social media post is a scam. HLC warns constituents to be aware of scams and online accounts pretending to provide benefits from the Massachusetts Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP) and other HLC programs.

While HEAP (formerly known as LIHEAP) does NOT provide free roof replacements and is not exclusively for seniors, HEAP does help eligible households across Massachusetts pay for a portion of their winter heating bills, starting in November and running through April. Last heating season, thanks to expanded benefits from Governor Healey, 154,781 households were provided with home heating support.

The 2025/26 heating season is now over and applications for HEAP will re-open in fall 2026. To learn more and to check your eligibility, please visit Mass.gov/HEAP.

If you are eligible for HEAP, you are also eligible for:

HEARTWAP: The Heating System Repair and Replacement Program provides emergency heating system repair and replacement services to low-income households.

WAP: The Low-Income Weatherization Assistance Program provides eligible households with full-scale home energy efficiency services.
