Are there any resources for teenage runaways that will not forcibly return them to abusive home?

Interesting question...your question assumes that the runaway is from an abusive home. Please first investigate this carefully. I am the mother of a Bipolar daughter who is a habitual runaway and will tell any kind of lie to stay out on her own. I know many kids come from abusive backgrounds, but many are also mentally ill and have families that love them.

Please consider this for your situation.

God Bless!
