I am so scared. My husband has taken the children. I don't know where they are or what his plan is. I left him because of the abuse and now I am all alone. I don't even know if I have a question. I have no place to turn. No idea what to do now. HELP!

HELLO!

YOU NEED TO FIRST SIT YOUR SELF DOWN AND GATHER YOURSELF. YOU MUST THINK WIHT A CLEAR HEAD AND NOT AN IRATIONAL ONE. FIRST THINK I SUGGEST IS TO CONTACT A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ADVICATE IN YOUR AREA, AND LEGAL AID IF YOU CAN NOT AFFORD AN ATTORNEY. AND LET THE PROFESSIONALS DO THEIR JOB. AND I SUGGEST THAT YOU JOIN A SUPPORT GROUP!

HERE IS A LISTING OF COALITIONS FOR EACH STATE TO CALL AND THEY WILL GET YOU TO THE RIGHT PERSON. I DO HAVE AN EXTENSIVE LISTING FOR EACH STATE BUT YOU WILL NEED TO PROVIDE ME WITH THE STATE YOU RESIDE IN.
