Question by lauriemomm: I need help, and I don’t know where to go. My husband is a drug addict and I want to take the kids and leave
I have no money and I want to take the kids and leave him. He isn’t violent but because of his addiction we have no money, we haven’t had hot water for months because they shut our gas off. He doesn’t think I will do it but I can’t live like this anymore. Is there anyone who can help me?

Look in your phone book. Is there an SOS Shelter? How about United Way? Call your church? Do you have family? Is there a YWCA in your area?
