A teenager, no matter their what their age, or what state they live in, should immediately move in with willing relatives if they are suffering abuse at home.

The police would only become involved if the parents call them. If this happens, the teen has an opportunity to report the abuse to the police, and that you had to leave your home because of the abuse occurring there.

You also have the right to press charges and file for a protection order against your parents. The state could officially take custody of you, but would most certainly allow you to stay with your relatives. The state would only take custody of you if they suspect that your parents are abusive, in order to protect you from them. But this would not affect your living situation, you would still stay with your relatives, especially since you are so close to the age of 18.

Considering the circumstances, your parents may not involve the police at all, as they would have to suffer the consequences of their actions (the abuse). Your relatives may want to consult with a lawyer, just so they know their rights beforehand. You may also want to report the abuse as soon as you are safely at your relatives.
