Utility Assistance Program
Utility Assistance Program
Due to the continuing stress of the last 3 years, Skagway residents are now facing some of the financially toughest years. As we prepare for winter, SDC-CDS is once again offering residential households utility assistance. This program will be available to Skagway residents who are making at or below the HUD guidelines for low-income. The support available to households each month will depend upon the amount of funds SDC is able to raise or procure for the program.
SDC-CDS Utility Assistance Program is currently OPEN.
-
Submit completed applications to Jon at SDC via email (sdccommunitydevelopment@gmail.com), via fax (907-983-3414), mail (PO Box 1236) or drop-off in-person.

For second-time program users needing to show proof of having applied for the State of Alaska's Heating Assistance Program. Find the Heating Assistance Application HERE

Funds will not be paid directly to applicants. A credit will be placed on the applicants' account/s with the utility provider/s. If you are eligible for the program but pay your bills before funds have been dispersed, funds will still be credited to your account.
If you are an Alaska Native or American Indian, please consider applying for the Skagway Traditional Council's Direct Assistance program to most efficiently use limited local resources.
