St. Vincent de Paul continues to process applications for EAP--the Energy Assistance Program! As we have done for the past 2 grant periods, SVdP-St. Clare is taking the lead on a collaboration of Vincentians from the surrounding parishes of our SVdP District—St. Matthew, St. Paul, Star of the Sea, St. Ambrose and St. Raymond. We are also serving people living in areas with no SVdP representation—St. Philomena, St. Jude, Assumption Grotto, and people who live where St. Peter and Queen of Heaven conferences have closed.
To be eligible for assistance, the energy bill must be in the applicants name, the bill must be at least at least $150.00 past due, and the household must meet the 2015 Federal Poverty Guidelines for Monthly income—see table. And there is some documentation required along with the signed and completed application.
Every other Saturday morning here at St. Clare—our next session is Feb. 6th--SVdP volunteers are processing EAP applications for people who have been pre-screened and are eligible for assistance. For more information or to request a pre-screening phone call, leave a message on our Assistance Line at 313-647-5062 and one of our volunteers will return your call.
