LCCAA’s Community Connections program has returned.

Teaming up with Ohio Edison, the program offers energy-efficient refrigerators, freezers and light bulbs to income eligible Ohio Edison customers.

LCCAA is contracting with Greener Homes to conduct energy audits for low-income families. If appliances are assessed as inefficient, the program replaces them. Customers can also receive energy efficient light bulbs for all fixtures.

Clients must live at or below 200 percent of the federal poverty line and be a customer of Ohio Edison. Renters can qualify if they own the appliances. Verification and a waiver of liability from the landlord is required.

Other requirements include:

• You must have at least 12 months electrical service in your name.
• Provide your most current electric bill.
• Provide proof of income for everyone in the household 18 or older for the last 30 days.
• Provide a copy of Social Security cards for each household member.
• Provide a copy of your driver’s license or state identification card.

Customers can complete the application available on our website or contact LCCAA at [email protected].
