Being homeless can certainly hinder a person's ability to plan and prepare meals, but it's rare for someone to be truly starving, at least in the United States. Every city has at least one charitable organization dedicated to giving food to those who need it the most. There are soup kitchens which serve meals on a daily basis, food pantries that give groceries to those who ask, and of course food stamps. You don't have to have a permanent address to get food stamps and most homeless people use them to buy non-perishable food to carry around.
If you really want to learn more about this, I would advise you to get involved and and look for ways to help. It doesn't take much to make a difference - you could make a donation to your local food pantry or even volunteer to help out at a soup kitchen. However, if you're just looking for a succinct answer, then in a single word... charity.

Where can you get help if you are 18-years-old and homeless?
Go to your local Social Services office. I know in CA they have a sort of welfare for single persons. Not sure of the qualifications, but you're homeless and I assume you have no job. If they can't help, ask them for a list of local shelters. Shelters usually have programs to help you get on your feet. Now, they will have curfews and rules. Follow them to the nail, and you will succeed. == There are lots of social service agencies who can take a willing and determined person and help them do what they must to become employed and then to make a home.
You don't say what led you to become homeless, but hopefully you have reconsidered the choices you made along the way. This will help you move forward in life.
