My name is Kay. I am from Brooklyn, NY. I rent a room across the hall from my father. We both were evicted by his sisters in our family home, because of issues between him and his family. He lives here rent free, as him and the landlord are "friends". I pay.

-----------------------------------------------------

In recent years he has become very unsupportive of me, often taking his frustrations out on me by calling me names and intentionally trying to hurt me. He often is verbally abusive to me as well as my mother, whom he has been separated from since 2015.

----------------------------------------------------

On Mother's Day 2017, my father became angry at my mother and took it out on me. He became very volatile and took the keys to the car that I used that was ultimately going to help me move (now I must rent a vehicle, should I find a new place). He shredded my bank card. He pretty much wants to make it harder for me to leave.

---------------------------------------------------

My father has a history and a tendency to show up at my mother's job and home unannounced, and has even tried to take the copy of the key I have to her place. When he can't get a hold of her, he takes it out on me. I get repeated phone calls and angry voice messages. I hide from him in my own home.

------------------------------------------------------

I must escape the horrors that have become my living condition. I spoke to the police and their best advice was for me to get out as soon as I can and ultimately get an order of restraint if I needed it. I had been out of work since January, and landed a new job a few weeks ago. Because of this, I had not saved up much; still I need immediate housing for me and my dog.

-------------------------------------------------

What I'm asking for is enough for me to get my life back to normal and away from this abusive behavior, and have enough funds to maintain a place of my own, so I don't have to go back. Homeless shelters would not take my dog. Every hotel I've called has either been booked or is not pet friendly. Please help me move out and have a place of peace for me and my dog. Please help us. I don't want to be homeless. I don't want to live where I am hated and not wanted. Give what you can. Please spread this around. I really need all the help I can get. Thank you.
