AidSense — Find Help Near You
AidSense helps you quickly find shelters, food banks, free and low-cost clinics, and overnight parking locations near you — all in one free app.
Whether you're facing a tough moment or helping someone who is, AidSense makes it easy to find real, local help without knowing exactly where to look.
Find resources near you
Browse an interactive map showing shelters, food banks, and clinics in your area. Adjust your search radius to see what's nearby or expand your search further out. Tap any location for full details — address, phone number, hours, and directions.
Ask our AI assistant
Not sure what you need or where to start? Just describe your situation in plain language — "I need a place to sleep tonight" or "where can I find food nearby" — and our AI assistant will help point you toward relevant resources, including specific details when available.
Save resources for offline use
No signal? No problem. Save resources to access their address, phone number, and hours even without an internet connection.
Help keep information accurate
Found something outdated or missing? Add a new resource, report an issue, or help verify existing listings — the more people who use AidSense, the more complete and accurate it becomes for everyone.
No account required
Browse resources, use the map, and chat with our AI assistant — all without creating an account. Sign in only if you want to save favorites or manage an organization's listing.
For organizations
Run a shelter, food bank, or clinic? Claim your organization's listing to keep your information accurate and up to date for the people who need it.
