Kno-Ho-Co-Ashland Community Action Commission continues to offer assistance to households impacted by COVID-19 with past due rent or mortgage payments and to prevent utility disconnection including water and sewer disconnections. Gas, electric and bulk fuel (propane) assistance is also available through multiple programs.
Funding appropriated to the agency expands the agency’s capability to serve those who continue to be impacted by the COVID19 pandemic. Income guidelines and benefit amounts vary by program. It is suggested that anyone past due with rent, mortgage or a utility contact the local office for more details.
