Being able to play a small part in helping to implement LIHWAP has been one of the most fulfilling things I've had the opportunity to do in my career to date. The report released today shows how critical this program is and the impact it has had on households across the country.

[Secretary Xavier Becerra @SecBecerra]

I am proud of @HHSGov for standing up LIHWAP, the first-ever federal program to assist households with their water bills.

Benefits have gone to those who need them most with 53% of households served at or below 75% of the Federal Poverty Level. https://t.co/vpjPzuGv5n

[Secretary Xavier Becerra @SecBecerra]

Today, @HHSGov released $3.7B in LIHEAP funding to help households keep the heat on in the winter while still being able to afford other essentials necessary for good health like food, medicine, and housing.

It was an honor to participate in the @HHSGov Earth Day celebration today and talk about how LIHEAP can keep households safe and mitigate the negative health impacts of climate change!

[Secretary Xavier Becerra @SecBecerra]

Celebrated Earth Day at the Children’s National Research and Innovation Campus in DC!

@POTUS’ Inflation Reduction Act includes $2.8B in environmental and climate justice block grants for community-based nonprofits that make sure environmental justice efforts are felt at home.

New study from @USTreasury & @OESatGSA finds that Emergency Rental Assistance had a strong equity focus with extremely low income, Black, and women renters all overrepresented among those receiving rental assistance. https://t.co/duf3VjdrSS

[Katie Green @KatieTGreen]

Very exciting work from ⁦@USTreasury⁩ and ⁦@OESatGSA⁩! New research indicates ERA went to those who needed it most, w/ extremely low income, Black, and women renters overrepresented among households receiving assistance. https://t.co/kIGNfQypzv

[Secretary Xavier Becerra @SecBecerra]

Diapers were expensive when my daughters were babies, and they are even more expensive now. They are the 4th largest expenditure for families with low incomes, which is why we are launching the 1st federal diaper pilot, administered by @OCS_ACFgov. https://t.co/RAp1wbho2a

[Katie Green @KatieTGreen]

@chefjoseandres @WCKitchen @WhiteHouse @SecBecerra @De11eDonne @POTUS Incredibly well-deserved! Powerful to see you sworn in while actively helping with the emergency response in PR.

[ACF @ACFHHS]

One in three families don't have enough money to change their baby or toddler’s diaper frequently. Today, during Diaper Need Awareness Week — ACF is launching the first-ever federal diaper distribution pilot. Read more in the latest Family Room blog:

Great work from our partners @WAStateCommerce! As we continue to grapple with rising temperatures, cooling assistance is more important than ever. #LIHEAP

[Office of Community Services (OCS) @OCS_ACFgov]

“Should I go to the grocery store, or should I turn the air conditioning on? That’s a decision people shouldn’t have to make.” See how Brian Sarensen and his team are using LIHEAP funds to provide cooling assistance in Washington State. #OCS #LIHEAP #CSBG
