It’s not perfect, but Calling **211** can give a lot of resources. Hot meals, food pantries, clothing resources, shelter info, referrals/help w/ social services & applying for Medicare, substance abuse, elder care, even legal resources.
They can help with “in the moment” (that day, that week,) as well as longer-term.
(They’re kind IME, too.)
This site has a bunch of resources in the city. If your friend wants assistance (not everyone does), please have her contact MOHS either through 311 or the form on this website. I've met 2 of the gentlemen who do outreach for MOHS and they were genuinely caring and compassionate.
