PHOENIX – This week, Governor Katie Hobbs and the Arizona Department of Economic Security (DES) launched Power AZ, expanding access to critical utility assistance to an estimated 30,000 households.
“DES is grateful for Governor Katie Hobbs’ ongoing commitment to Arizonans, as demonstrated by her administration’s investment in utility assistance,” said DES Director Michael Wisehart. “The launch of Power AZ is a significant milestone in how we support Arizona families facing the growing pressure of rising energy costs and the broader challenge of affordability. This $15 million investment is a direct commitment to the health and safety of our community’s most vulnerable residents.
