Location(s) for rescued baby squirrel

Oh, also, do you think there might be anyone on this subreddit who’d like to take in the squirrel? Do you think I should try to get it in the hands of a rescue-type place before putting the squirrel in the hands of an average person who wants to give raising a squirrel as a pet a shot? Bad idea? The squirrel was scared (was crying/squeaking at a point) and it’s future was looking bleak being lost/abandoned and left alone. My roommate taking in the squirrel was a great move in terms of saving it’s life, but neither of us want to be ‘on the hook’ for raising it from cradle to the grave. I mean, if it comes to it, I guess we’ll have to, but I figure there has to be at least one- at leeeaaast one- squirrel rescue joint in nyc.
