OKDHS shares the list of LIHEAP recipients from the previous year at the beginning of each fiscal year with the ODOC. ODOC and CAAs may also confirm LIHEAP participation by contacting OKDHS. The OKDHS LIHEAP application does not include a checkbox for the referral; however, OKDHS staff makes a referral when the eligibility discussion indicates a need for weatherization. The availability of weatherization information is on the external OKDHS website: https:/ /oklahoma.gov/ okdhs/services/liheap/utilityservicesliheapmain.html.
