OP got a heads up from someone who worked with the program, and now said person has no job and people depending on this service are SOL. I think.

a version of this that makes sense. Meanwhile, the person who wrote this needs to learn basic English spelling, punctuation, usage, and everything else connected to writing something that others can understand.

I do not want anyone to not communicate until they meet certain English-language proficiency standards.

Cuts to iheap programs across America will put many people in danger of death due to lack of home heating and cooling.

One person after another has done the OP the courtesy of trying to make sense of it rather than just moving on. That’s a testimony to their good intentions — and to the bad communication skills of either the OP or some person quoted.

For starters, what is iheap or lheap? I never saw that acronym before now. Or is it a word in itself and not an acronym?

And now, I shall move on.

So after taking health care and food away, now they'll freeze people to death.

503c refers to non-profit tax exempt organizations.

https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/trump-admin-fires-staff-liheap-agency-utilities-assistance-program-rcna199177

The Trump administration on Tuesday eliminated the entire staff of a federal program that helps low-income households pay utility bills, sources said.

The staff of 10 employees accounted for only a small fraction of the 10,000 layoffs included in Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s purge of the Department of Health and Human Services. But those who work closely with the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, or LIHEAP, now fear for its future.

“Ultimately, I believe the program will crumble from within without the federal office there to manage it,” said Andrew Germain, who was director of fiscal operations and accountability for the Administration for Children and Families, the HHS division that leads dozens of programs from welfare assistance to child-abuse prevention.

Germain and his team were responsible for conducting oversight and providing technical assistance to such community services, including LIHEAP. He received an email from HHS around 5 a.m. ET Tuesday informing him that he would be placed on administrative leave until June 2. The Office of Personnel Management requires federal employees be given 60 days’ notice before the effective date of workforce cuts.

To me, it seems, that this administration is trying to get to the point of causing civil disturbance.

go through something like this, especially when it’s due to circumstances beyond their control. If there’s anything you can do to support them, whether it’s just being there to listen, helping them explore new opportunities, or even just reminding them of their strengths, it can make a big difference (it did for me at a very tough juncture of my life). I can only hope they find something even better soon.
