Calls for utility assistance increasing

“Utilities is the big request right now,” said Angela Settle, the Help Office’s director. The Help Office and the Salvation Army’s Owensboro office both have utility assistance funds available, officials said Tuesday. Audubon Area Community Services is currently out of utility assistance dollars, although more funds are expected in early January. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused multiple hardships for people, even those who haven’t become ill. Settle said some Help Office clients are reporting losing income when they learn they have a possible COVID exposure and have to quarantine. “A lot of people have lost income due to COVID,” Settle said. “One client said they were exposed and had to quarantine, and ended up getting (the virus). So they were off for several weeks.”
