Water Help Ongoing

LIH-WAP, the Low-Income Household Water Assistance Program, can provide up to $1,500 to income eligible Lorain County residents who need help paying their water bills.

Households must be living at or below 175% of the Federal Poverty Level or actively receiving assistance from TANF, SNAP, or SSI.

You must also have a residential account and either be in arrears or disconnected. If you are disconnected, the program can also help with reconnect fees.

Your municipality or water company must agree to participate. Payment is made directly to them.

You can apply through energyhelp.ohio.gov or the LCCAA website.
