Low-Income Discount Rate Program Webinar

Legal Action Chicago invites you to learn about Low-Income Discount Rate (LIDR) Programs in our free, 1-hour high impact webinar. LIDR programs are now available – or will be soon – for all major Illinois utilities. These programs are designed to help low-income households throughout the state access affordable gas, electric, and water service where they live.

 

As utility costs rise while government support shrinks, low-income communities are in increased need of affordable and accessible utility service. These programs can help families and their communities avoid disconnection and keep water running by helping them save up to 83% on their energy bill. Join us in this webinar to better understand the state of utilities in Illinois, how low-income residents are impacted by rising costs, and how you can help spread the word of these vital programs.

 

What to expect:

  • Learn from Legal Action Chicago attorney Dan Schneider about why utility costs are rising

  • Learn about who qualifies for discount programs and how to enroll residents

  • Connect with others advancing energy justice

When:

  • December 10th at 3:00 pm
