The Energy Assistance Program (EAP) serves thousands of families in Northwest Indiana every year. We primarily serve Lake and Porter Counties of Indiana, but will assist anyone in Northwest Indian who comes to us. Energy Assistance provides a one time credit on your utility bill that can help you and your family make it through the coldest and most expensive months of the year. 

Thank you for choosing us to help you with your application! We love serving you!

We are located at 824 Hoffman Street in Hammond

Our Office hours are Monday through Thursday from 9AM-2PM
