7.1 Describe how you will ensure that the LIHEAP program is coordinated with other programs available to low-income households (TANF, SSI, WAP, etc.). Joint application for multiple programs (indicate programs included) LIHEAP, CSBG and Weatherization Intake referrals to/from other programs (indicate programs included) One - stop intake centers Other - Describe: Coordination of LIHEAP Activities Attachment The State has one application for three programs – LIHEAP, CSBG, and Weatherization. Therefore, an applicant may apply for all programs during the intake process. If the weatherization agency is different from the LIHEAP agency, the LIHEAP agency refers to the weatherization agency to complete the assessment for this program. Local agencies offer all programs administered by that agency, especially to the vulnerable populations of elderly, disabled, families with children, and veterans. Local agencies refer applicants to other local offices such as SNAP and TANF if applicants are not currently receiving these services. Also, the department has the Common Web Portal (CWP). Households can apply for LIHEAP when they apply for SNAP and Medicaid through the CWP.
