Utilities Assistance

Our goal at the KCAO Home & Energy Department is to lend support to those navigating difficulties with their utility bills. Recognizing the crucial role of water, gas, electricity, and other essential utilities, we offer various programs designed to address the needs of individuals and families, assisting with both current and past due bills.

KCAO has now received a portion of the 2025 utility funds.  For the month of December, we will be assisting families that are completely disconnected or have received a disconnection notice.  The utility appointment calendar will open up on January 6, 2025.
