You can order your birth certificate online then get a free ID NYC card then you can go get your social security card
I am helping a friend get his birth certificate. He has his Social Security number only. All his other identification was stolen or lost. He needs a Birth Certificate to get his ID, so he can get on a bus and join a family who is going to help him get a fresh start. In the requirements, I do not see that a SS number will help.
