Hi,
In the state of Utah, you must be 18 to leave home without parental consent. If you leave without consent, your legal guardians would have the right to file a runaway report and if the police can locate you, they may return you home. Beyond this, you typically wouldn’t get “in trouble” legally (though we are by no means legal experts!). If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out at 1-800-786-2929.
