VHFA and the Vermont Housing & Conservation Board (VHCB) have offered suggestions for owners and managers of affordable rental housing to help their residents apply for fuel assistance this winter.
The suggestions, the result of a June meeting with a variety of stakeholders, are detailed in a recent memo from VHFA's Sam Falzone and VHCB's Rick DeAngelis.
Familiarize yourself with the Fuel Assistance Program by attending a Oct. 1 training to be held at 133 State Street, Montpelier, from 9:30 a.m. to noon. (R.S.V.P. to Rick at [802] 828-3526 or [email protected].)
