Shelby County is shifting its LIHEAP program to online-only applications starting November 3, with limited crisis aid available pending funding; assistance ranges from $174 to $750 per household, subject to stricter eligibility and funding availability.
Meanwhile, County Commissioner Mickell Lowery is urging MLGW to halt utility disconnections for SNAP recipients due to a federal shutdown disrupting food benefits for up to 150,000 residents, calling for a pause until the shutdown ends or January 31, 2026, and pushing for coordinated emergency aid through food banks and nonprofits, with Memphis allocating $500,000 in support.
