Hi, I'm calling to ask about emergency financial assistance.

I also wanted to confirm your current hours. I see Mon-Fri business hours; call for current availability. Is that still accurate?
And just to confirm — is this service free of charge?
What is the best way to get started? I see call 248-920-6000 to request crisis assistance.
