emPower is a program offered through True North Community Services. The program helps provide financial assistance to folks for heating costs. The emToons series explains the paperwork in simplified manageable steps, making it easier for people to get the assistance they need in order to stay warm all winter long!

The cartoon features Carrie and Clyde. Carrie is an octopus and a mother - she's never filled out this form before! And Clyde, her helpful companion, is a nervous jellyfish who hides in a box. Together they walk us through the emPower application.
