Human Services Programs
Renters’ Rebate Program
Connecticut provides a reimbursement program for renters who are elderly or totally disabled, and whose incomes do not exceed certain limits. Persons renting an apartment
or room, or living in cooperative housing or a mobile home may be eligible for this program. Renters’ rebates can be up to $900 for
married couples and $700 for single persons. The renters’ rebate amount is based on a graduated income scale and the amount of rent and utility payments (excluding telephone) made in the calendar year prior to the year in which the renter applies. An application may be completed with your town social service agency, or the Assessor’s Office, depending on the town, between April 1st and October 1st. Please contact Cristal Philbrick at 860-258- 2021 or cphilbrick@rockyhillct.gov for more information or to make an appointment.

There are no qualifications or limitations on the program, we just want every resident to enjoy a nice meal on the holidays. Please reach out to us at 860-258-2799 if you would like to be included in our deliveries,
