from experience, I know that the only way you can legally leve dfcs at 17 is to be emancipated in a court setting. Otherwise, if you leave, you will be posted as a missing person and dfcs legally still has custody until you are 18...then you can sign yourself out. If you are under 17, you will be reported as a runaway, and can be sent to Juvi for it.

Out of all the requests for emancipation, very few are granted. You have to prove severe abuse. If you are a female, getting pregnant will emancipate you.

This is because you can now go to prison in Georgia at age 17. But you cannot be kicked out by your parents until age 18. Be aware that you can't legally sign a Lease or other Contract until age 18.
