The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families awarded The Seminole Nation of Oklahoma $187,127 on October 1, 2025, under the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP, CFDA 93.568).
The award funds energy assistance to eligible low-income households within the Seminole Nation's service area in Oklahoma. The assistance covers home energy bills, energy crises, weatherization, and minor energy-related home repairs.
The period of performance runs from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2027, with place of performance in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. This is a formula grant, reflecting the Seminole Nation's status as a federally recognized tribal government receiving annual allocations under the LIHEAP block grant mechanism. The nation submits an annual LIHEAP Model Plan each year and receives its tribal allocation following congressional appropriation and plan approval by the Office of Community Services.
