California emergency help with bills

[C Boyd]

I have been without any electricity now for a good couple of months. I owe over $500 on PSE&G bill, it's already in collections. I also owe over $500 on my Cablevision bill, that's probably in collections as well. I need help. What can I do? I obviously don't care as much about Cable, as worse comes to worse I can use the library for computer and job seeking access. But I am really scared about my utility bill. What if they turn off my power, I will be in big trouble.

Hi,
Call your utility company and ask them about the California Alternate Rates for Energy (CARE) energy bill assistance program. This is an aid program that can provide cash and grants to help pay an utility bill.
