Go get a caseworker from your county office. They should be able to get you qualified for dental and medical services, food stamps and welfare, and housing, and point you to where you can get some clothing from local services.

Perhaps, try getting a job at a place that supplies the uniform. Most importantly find the courage within yourself to overcome the odds. Do not let your present circumstance undermine the capability of your future. Move on with determination, even if it means walking miles, until you can afford to buy a car. Don't overlook possible positive alternatives to your situation. Memorize this phrase "my past, and my present do not determine my ultimate future." Whatever you wish someone would do for you, you must find it first within yourself to demonstrate the same.

Ask some of the neighbours around you where they work and if they could find you a job. That way you could hitch a lift with them to the job until you sort things out. Or even mow peoples lawns for money, start a car wash service, sell avon, or whatever the catalogue marketing thing is where you are. Sell things on ebay? Talk to job seeking companies and ask tell them your issues, I know in Australia they even help with those sorts of things. Best of luck

Try to get the job, and explain your situation to your potential employer in the interview. You may find a coworker willing to give you a ride.

2 or 3 miles is no problem. Walk it at speed and you'll be fit and healthy in no time.

Look for some work on the internet. there are many websites (chacha.com, for instance) looking for people who can give a few hours here and there...look it up on Google...but careful, don't fall for scams.

do you have a friend who wears the same size clothes as you?...then borrow the clothes from that friend and take a bus home.
