I am in desperate need of assistance paying my electric bill. I am permanently disabled and live in poverty. I have very low income, 16,000 annual income, my electricity will be turned off by the 4th.
I have exhausted all measures trying to get help, according to the internet I qualify for LiHEAP and community action but no one will help me apply or I have talked to one person in Trinity county that’s said I had to be at least 62 years of age...this is incorrect.
I am disabled, live in poverty and have income - below poverty guidelines.
I need help with my electric bill, I filled out a form with Houston County Electric COOP and they approved me and reduced the bill by 150.00 that still leaves me with almost 550.00 electric bill that I can not pay. This is what poverty does to people like me it makes us desperate. Please for God sakes someone help me or tell me what to do before my power is disconnected
