In North Carolina, people on S.S.I. are eligible for a reduced rate on their electric bill. Applications are available at D.S.S. Every state is different, but I have noticed similar programs for electric and other utilities. You just got to ask.
If you need help, ask agencies what assistance is available. If you need emergency assistance for a utility bill and the agency can't help, find out what other services the agency provides that may increase your available income. Better yet, ask to speak with an intake worker. Knowledge is power.
