What can a 17 year old girl do if her parents are in jail?
A 17 year old is still legally a child (until her 18th birthday). This means that the state is responsible for your welfare (housing and feeding you) if your legal parents are in jail and there is no suitable person (eg grandparent) to care for you. Thus if you walk into a police station and tell them your age and situation, the state will take you to a place of safety and look after you.
