No Wisconsinite should
be faced with losing
their water service.

You may not ask for it,
but we are here to help.https://wisconsinwater.help/sites/wisconsinwater.help/assets/images/default/esi-kwwf-h4h-TRI-LOGO-2022-WHITE.png

Water is one of nature’s most beautiful and life-sustaining resources. At no fault of their own many WI utility customers are facing a shut-off to their water service. This leaves them without the one life-giving resource we all take for granted. And those hardest hit are on fixed incomes juggling multiple temporary jobs, or those who lost full-time jobs in sectors hardest hit by the pandemic.

Recognizing this, funds have been made available to ensure that Wisconsinites have access to crucial resources like heat, power, and also water. If someone you care about needs a hand up, your local WI energy providers are working together to keep you safely in your home, and your water, heat, and power on.

How do I qualify?

Your household may qualify if a household member meets the following:

  • Complete a WHEAP application online or schedule an appointment at a service center convenient to you.

Applicants will need to provide the following:

  1. Your most recent water bill
  2. SOCIAL SECURITY #’s
  3. Written proof of your household’s gross income for the one month prior to your application, such as:
    • Payroll stubs
    • Child support printout
    • Unemployment printout
    • Social Security benefit verification letter
  • Have a household gross income at or below the listed income guidelines.
  • Provide a copy of your latest water utility bill.

 

LIHWAP grants are paid towards arrears and billing statements at the time of application.

Based on funding availability, low-income or fixed-income households may apply for additional LIHWAP benefits to offset the future threat of disconnection of water service.

Bill payments are made directly to utilities who have an established vendor agreement with the state of Wisconsin. LIHWAP benefit payments are made on your behalf directly to your water utility.
