Multi-state-- custody and abuse

I’m so sorry that you’re going through all of this, and that your abuser has continued to threaten and harass you, even though you were able to leave the state. I’m actually going to give you the name of another organization. They are sometimes able to help in cases that involve abuse, custody, and more than one state:

Legal Resource Center on Violence Against Women

Website: www.lrcvaw.org
Phone: 301-270-1550 (Monday-Friday, 8:30-4:30 Eastern Time)
Email: lrcatlrcvaw.org

If they’re not able to help, though, let me know and we’ll see what else we can find for you, okay?
