Commerce wants your feedback!  

On June 26, 2025, the Department of Commerce published a draft of the 2026 Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Model Plan Application.

The 2026 Model Plan Application describes how the state of Washington, with community-based agencies and local governments, will provide energy assistance and weatherization services to low-income households. A draft copy of the 2026 Plan is available on the LIHEAP website.
