They are not specifically anarchist, probably democratic socialist, though I’ve been pushing them more and more to the left (they started off as neolib), and I think Trump getting elected really disillusioned them with the prospect of reformism actually making meaningful change.

They basically asked me, “It’s fucking crazy over here. People are dying and Trump is fucking up everything. I feel so helpless and hopeless. Do you have any resources on things to do?”

Do you guys have links I could send. Cheers.

Yep, local community action is the path to really helping people and possible reform.
