City offers special utility assistance for low-income seniors and disabled residents

City residents 60 and over can apply for up to $1000 starting June 1

The City of St. Louis Department of Human Services is offering special utility assistance for City residents who are over the age of 60, and/or disabled, and at risk of having gas or electric utilities disconnected. Eligibility is based on residency within the City of St. Louis, risk of disconnection, and income.

“We want to make sure that some of the City’s most vulnerable residents – those with disabilities and those over the age of 60 – are able to stay safe and cool during the warm summer months,” said Mayor Slay. “I’m pleased the City’s Department of Human Services has identified funds to help at least 500 City households.”

The City of St. Louis Department of Human Services has allocated $500,000 in unused funds from a Housing and Urban Development grant that will now be used to assist with utility assistance. Each household may be eligible for up to $1,000. Individuals will be required to produce proof of City residency, a valid ID, a social security card, proof of income from all members of the household, and proof of past due utility bills. Applications will be accepted from June 1 – June 15, 2012.

“I’m glad we were able to allocate these funds to serve an important cause,” said Bill Siedhoff, Director of Human Services. “The funds are part of the City’s ongoing efforts to prevent homelessness. I urge qualified individuals to submit applications soon so we can prevent utility disconnection.”

Individuals should call (314) 612-5918 for applications and additional information.
