Colorado's Low-income Energy Assistance Program (LEAP) pays part of your winter home heating costs. The payment goes directly to your utility or fuel company, once per season. It does not cover the whole bill. If you qualify, you may also get help repairing or replacing a broken heating system. Apply online through Colorado PEAK, or call 1-866-HEAT-HELP (1-866-432-8435) to apply by phone or ask for a paper application. Paper applications come in English and Spanish and can be mailed, emailed or dropped off at your county human services office. No interview is needed. If your heat may be shut off or you are running out of propane, call right away and ask about an emergency application.
