Move out

[ccsmod10]

Hi there,

Thank you for reaching out to us at the National Runaway Safeline. I’m sorry to hear about your situation with your brother. Abuse is never ok and your brother doesn’t deserve to be treated that way. If at any point you feel he is in immediate danger we encourage either you or him to call 911.

You may want to consider reporting the abuse. Child Help (1-800-422-4453) is a great resource to explore your options and get information on how to transfer custody from your mom to your grandparent. Also, it may be a good idea to see if there is anyone at your brother’s school that may be able to provide some support such as a teacher or school counselor.

If you would like to discuss any of this further, please feel free to contact us directly via our 24 hour crisis hotline (1-800-786-2929). We can also provide some legal aid resources to help you with transferring custody.

We wish you the best of luck
NRS
