A suggested script — adapt it to your situation:
Hi, I'm calling to ask about emergency financial assistance.
My name is [your name], and I'm interested in the Debt Counseling and Financial Wellness Support program.

What is the best way to get started? I see call the counseling line or start online to ask about debt, budgeting, and financial-wellness support.
Thank you so much for your help.
