If you are struggling to pay your utility bills, please do not wait until your utilities are shut off to reach out for assistance. Once the power is off, there are additional fees before it can be restored and all resources require an application. You may be without power for a day or two while your application is processed.
If you need assistance finding food, paying housing bills, accessing childcare or other essential services, contact 211.
Help is available via texting, phone call and their website.
