This video highlights how Washington State has used Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) funds, including American Rescue Plan funds, to implement a cooling assistance program to help mitigate the impact of extreme heat. The program provides LIHEAPeligible households with air conditioning units and hardship benefits to help pay for the electricity needed to run the units.
