If you are a minor you will be sent to foster care if your home is not found appropriate and once you are an adult you will not go to jail.

Running away from home as a child is usually considered a status offense, meaning you are not charged with a crime but rather in need of care and support. If you are found, you may be returned to your home or placed in the custody of child protective services. The focus is on providing you with the necessary resources and support to ensure your safety and well-being.

If I'm in jail can I loose my parental rights?

I would think that would depend on several things. Such as: Why you are in jail? Is whatever caused you to go to jail a danger to the child? How long will you be in jail? I would ask to talk with an officer about the situation and ask to talk to a social worker about it to.
