Ron Burnett Earns CCD

Congratulations to SEC Board Member Mr. Ron Burnett in completing the Credentials Cooperatives Director (CCD) program through NRECA!

The first part of NRECA’s three-part Director Education Program, the CCD program consists of five courses that focus on basic governance knowledge and the essential skills required of cooperative directors. The CCD prepares directors to fulfill their fiduciary duty as elected officials serving on behalf of their membership. Upon completion of all five CCD courses, directors are awarded the Credentialed Cooperative Director Certificate by NRECA.

New Mexico Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program

The Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) is federally funded and helps low-income households with home energy bills. LIHEAP can help you stay warm in the winter and cool in the summer. By doing so, you can reduce the risk of health and safety problems—including illness, fire or eviction.

New Mexico LIHEAP may be able to offer you one or more of the following types of assistance: bill payment assistance; energy crisis assistance; and weatherization and energy-related home repairs. To be eligible for this benefit program, you must be a resident of New Mexico and need financial assistance with home energy costs.

A person who participates or has family members who participate in certain other benefit programs— such as SNAP, SSI or TANF—automatically meets the eligibility requirement. Please visit Socorro Electric to pick up applications or find them online at: www.hsd.state.nm.us/ wp-content/uploads/2020/12/LHP-602-LIHEAP-Application-Revised-83116_fillable.pdf
