If you want immediate info, I would call 311 in New York City. If you're still in NYC tomorrow, you can contact the following agencies:

Coalition for the Homeless (212) 776-2000

Project Renewal (212)620-0340 (I believe they have a van that goes around the city helping people who are homeless)

There's also Bowery Mission (they are a faith based org and also have vans going around the city) (212) 674-3456
