I already left my husband last night. I can no longer take him me being abused and keeps on aggravating my 5 yrs old daughter. My problem is she just got back here two months ago and i'm a conditional cardholder. We have no place to go tonight. No money. What should i do? what steps i need to take?

If you are in Dallas,Texas...The Family Place is an excellent women's/child shelter..I used to work there and they have hidden shelters all throughout the city with gated access.

there is a 24hr emergency hotline

You can ask a church to help you. I used to work for a social services agency and know that churches can be very active in this respect and very well connected to the resources out in the community. They can help you find a place to live and even work for the time being. It is very good that you have a clear enough head to realize you need to leave. I am so sorry you have to go through this.

They say you can only stay overnight but actually they will help you more than that..go there..I stayed in the shelter house for 3 mos. no money..nothing at all...they let me stay because i have nowhere to go.. and I am positive they will let you to too....I pray for your safety....

Confusedgirl - I am so sorry that things were so bad for you. Good luck to you and your daughter.

My problem is my daughter jsut got here two months ago and i'm a conditional cardholder.. me and my 5 yrs old daughter have no place to stay tonight.. What will happen now to us? what steps i need to take?

Where are you in the process? Your timeline says AOS pending, yet you say you have a conditional gc.

when you are at the police station, ask for social worker, and ask for 'emergency contact' with Catholic Charities Organization. They'll help you out, get you sorted and settled.

If you really are in Dallas - The Family Place is excellent - I was a contractor there for some years, ages past, giving seminars to men.

People, what is wrong with you?

911 is for emergencies. It's for when you have a stab wound, your child stopped breathing or your house is on fire.

It is NOT for when all you need is a taxi ride.

The OP has access to the web, she can look up the address to the nearest consulate and/or nearest shelter. She could also walk over to the nearest police station. She could also call 311, the non-emergency service.

Hello!

Call 911 , It is Free,

From whentocall911.com

DO NOT CALL 911 FOR NON-EMERGENCY TRANSPORTATION. Doing so can divert critical resources from situations which are a matter of life and death.

911 is for emergency transport/situations only. I'm sure that the OP would not want to be responsible for the death of someone who was trying to get through because their relative was bleeding out from a car crash. They have seconds of life to live, whereas she is not going to die in the next few seconds.

What if while she was calling, the person with their bleeding relative was also trying to call and couldn't get through?

Having access to the internet as the OP has, she would be far better off googling local shelters. Best of luck OP, to you and your daughter.

While working there...I NEVER saw them put anyone out on the street...Im a child psychotherapist and I was seeing those kids for months...they will give you safety, food, shelter, ind/group therapy, offer play therapy to your kiddo..and resources to help you get back on your feet...and if you qualify, they offer community placement as you transition out of shelter living...so GO there...not walk..RUN...
