As the colder months approach, we want to ensure that families in Lake, Jasper, Newton, and Porter counties have access to support that can help keep their homes warm and safe. The Northwest Indiana Reinvestment Alliance (NWIRA) is offering the Energy Assistance Program (EAP), which provides a one-time benefit to help eligible households with heating and utility costs.
