You have to apply for SER through dhs first (whether you get assistance or not) from there if they deny you then lighthouse or CCRT can help. But no one will help without going through dhs first, they need a denial letter or partial payments agreement. And when you apply through dhs they will put a 30 day hold on the account to give you time.
Call DTE and ask if they will accept it. They have in the past. Call the lighthouse directly.
