Retired Veteran in Arizona Seeking Utility Assistance

Hi there, thank you for reaching out and for your service. I completely understand how tough it can be to keep up with electricity bills, especially during Arizona’s extreme heat. Fortunately, some resources can assist you. In Arizona, you might qualify for help through the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP). This program is specifically designed to help with utility bills for households on a fixed income. You can apply through your local Community Action Agency—they’ll walk you through the process and determine your eligibility. Additionally, some utility providers in Arizona, like APS and SRP, offer special discounts or programs for seniors and veterans. It’s worth calling your provider to ask about those options. Lastly, organizations like the Salvation Army or St. Vincent de Paul in Arizona also offer emergency utility assistance. Let me know if you’d like help finding the right contact for your area or starting an application. I’m here to support you."
