Rather than requiring residents to make an appointment with a caseworker to access utility assistance, they may now apply and submit all eligibility documents through a publicly accessible online portal. This change allows the program to receive, process, and distribute a higher volume of utility payments. The Weatherization Assistance Program and Family Self-Sufficiency Program also moved to a new online client portal, though the change had minimal impact on the client experience.
