Are there any assistance programs for customers who need help with their energy bills?

Yes, Public Service Electric & Gas (PSE&G) provides various assistance programs to help customers who need support with their energy bills. These programs are designed to assist both low-income and moderate-income households. The Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) is available for eligible customers, which offers financial support to cover energy costs. Another program, the Temporary Relief for Utility Expenses (TRUE) grant, is specifically designed to help low-income customers who face a temporary financial crisis. Additionally, PSE&G collaborates with local community agencies to offer the Universal Service Fund (USF), which grants bill credits to income-eligible residential customers. These programs aim to ensure that customers facing financial challenges can maintain their energy services. By offering these assistance initiatives, PSE&G strives to support and provide relief to customers in need.
