By Yisroel R.

The Rockland County Office for the Aging will host office hours this Wednesday to help residents with energy-related questions and available assistance programs.

The office hours will be held on Wednesday, February 11, from 1:00 to 3:00 PM at the Rockland County Office for the Aging, located at 50 Sanatorium Road, Building F, in Pomona.

Participants will be able to speak directly with an Orange & Rockland Utilities representative about billing assistance, rebates and incentives, application support, and energy-related concerns specific to their home. Information about HomeBoost DIY Energy Assessments will also be available.

Appointments are highly recommended, though walk-ins are welcome. Seniors or caregivers assisting an elderly family member can reserve a spot by calling the Rockland County Office for the Aging at 845-364-2100. Attendees are encouraged to bring a recent utility bill, award letters from assistance programs such as HEAP or SNAP if applicable, income verification documents, and photos of any energy-related issues in their home.

The event is part of the county’s ongoing efforts to connect older residents with practical resources related to household energy needs.
