In-person application assistance can be provided upon request.
To set up a phone appointment with Fuel Assistance staff, call 617-349-6252. English and Spanish-speaking intake workers are available to assist applicants. If you are in a no-heat situation or facing immediate utility shutoff, fuel assistance can be provided within 24 hours to eligible applicants.
