Re: Abused and want to runaway
Thank you very much for contacting us at the National Runaway Safeline. We are very sorry to hear that you are being abused by your father. You certainly do not deserve this. It’s great that you are being resourceful and looking for help.
Although we are not certain what the police near you would say, they are mandated reporters. Especially when your father is in the act of abusing you, calling 911 would be a great resource so that they can come out and protect you.
There is perhaps an even better number for those who are being abused to call. Abuse reports are confidential. This is the National Abuse Hotline. This number is 1-800-4-A-CHILD (1-800-422-4453). Additionally, you can learn more about what it means to call and report abuse here: https://www.childhelp.org/hotline/resources-kids/. You can also access all of the local numbers according to your state by clicking this link: https://www.childhelp.org/wordpress/...ne-Numbers.pdf. They could definitely send you to somewhere safe.
Additionally, if you are looking for a safe place to go right now, try looking on this website to find a safe place near you: http://nationalsafeplace.org/ or http://nationalsafeplace.org/text-4-help/.
We invite you to call us at a 1-800-RUNAWAY (1-800-786-2929). We can assist you with finding a safe place near you, and we could can support you through making the abuse report. Please know that we are here for you. We wish you the best. You are so brave for reaching out. We hope that you are able to get to that safe place that you need and deserve.
Best,
NRS
