My husband is between jobs right now, he strats a new one on Monday. I'm a full time student, one semester away from graduation. We have a 14 year old and a 1 year old.We have an electric bill due friday we don't have the money for. It's 330.00. I've called the electric company and they can't work out a payment plan w/o us at least paying some of it. I've tried to get an apointment with city welfare and couldn't get through. We are located in Jacksonville, Fl. Any help is appreciated.

Florida power and light will not help you and community action will only give you some if you can prove you can pay the remainder. Im out of work 6 weeks now will have no power tomorrow. Amazing how fast one can fall. I have went everywhere for help, so much for help from some of these agencys.  Instead of a life raft to help you swim, seems they would rather you sink and get on the "system"  then the power company will slap you with additional deposits  I wonder if they will let my child and I live in their office.  Good luck to you, I hope you can find some help.
