Home with no electricity and DV survivor lives there

To whom it may concern:
I am working with a client that is in a severe domestic violence relationship. Her partner is currently incarcerated, and we are working to obtain safe housing for her prior to his release. She is currently residing in a home with no electricity, due to a previous debt amount to Knoxville Utilities Board in her name of $419.36.
KUB reported that she can have electricity added to her home by paying $200 deposit, and half of her debt owed $200, then they can put the remainder on a payment plan for her. Due to the fact that her name is tied to her abusers account, and other agencies have assisted her abuser on his bill previously, I am struggling to find funds available to assist her with this crisis. IF you can point me in the right direction to help this young lady, I would greatly appreciate your assistance.
