Hello,
I currently live in Minot ND. I am a single mother & I am also 24 weeks pregnant. I do not get any child support, I work 2 jobs, mainly one because the other job. I’ve worked 4 hours in the last two weeks. I am currently on assistance for food stamps, Medicaid, WIC, MDU heating assistance. I was curious what it takes to be on Electricity assistance? St Vincent told me to contact Community Action for this info. My electric is through Verendrye. I have only received one shut off notice & paid that in July. I have not received another yet, but my bill for December is due the 22nd and its $220. Half of that is passed due. I’m not sure how I am going to pay that plus all of my other bills. Please let me know if there is anything yawl can do to help me. Thank you.
