The Community Action Agency is OHEP's Local Home Energy Program Office for Anne Arundel County residents. We provide support to income-eligible residents of Anne Arundel County by helping to reduce the costs of their heating and electricity bills. Staff members are available Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm to assist clients with applying for services.
-
Maryland Energy Assistance Program (MEAP) provides assistance with home heating bills. Payments are made directly to utility companies to provide relief to customers.
-
Electric Universal Service Program (EUSP) provides financial assistance with current and/or past due electric and gas bills. Customers will also receive referrals for energy efficiency measures to reduce future electric bills.
-
Utility Service Protection Program (USPP) allows MEAP eligible households to enter into a year-round even monthly payment program with their utility company. The monthly payments are determined by using the estimated cost of the customer’s average utility usage minus the MEAP benefit.
