Jersey Central Power & Light (JCP&L) is teaming with New Jersey Natural Gas (NJNG) and other community organizations to host Energy Assistance Days in local communities. The events will take place in Monmouth, Morris and Ocean counties in September and October – including Lakewood, Jackson, and Toms River.
Energy Assistance Days provide customers the opportunity to sign up for special financial assistance programs to help pay their utility bills and gather information on energy efficiency programs that could help make their monthly bills more affordable. Representatives from JCP&L and several community agencies will be on hand to answer questions and help customers sign up for programs for which they are eligible.
To complete the required application on the day of the event, customers should bring their Social Security card, proof of income for all adult household residents, deed or rental lease and a recent electric bill.
The Energy Assistance Days locations and dates include:
Sept. 12: Ocean County Library, 301 Lexington Ave., Lakewood, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Sept. 14: Jackson Twp. Senior Center, 45 Don Connor Blvd., Jackson, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
