okay... here are the three steps of running away from an abusive home: 1. secretly pack clothes, food, and A LOT of water. 2. dial 9-1-1. 3. get police, and tell them the story. 4. VITAL PART- ask for a good foster home that doesn't have too many kids. that is how you make it out of an abusive home. The police thing might not be good, but you YOU DON'T want to go to an orphanage. people rarely go there. YOU DO NOT WANT to be a hobo either..... unless you really want to be one.

Are there any resources for teenage runaways that will not forcibly return them to abusive home?
Interesting question...your question assumes that the runaway is from an abusive home. Please first investigate this carefully. I am the mother of a Bipolar daughter who is a habitual runaway and will tell any kind of lie to stay out on her own. I know many kids come from abusive backgrounds, but many are also mentally ill and have families that love them. Please consider this for your situation. God Bless!
