Getting Out With Help

Iris, your guide
Iris says: “You do not have to find the way out alone.”

A note about distance

If someone is controlling, threatening, or retaliatory, creating distance can sometimes increase risk. You do not have to announce your plan or leave alone. Bring in a safe adult or appropriate professional support.

  • Make a plan with help.
  • Keep your ID, phone, and money if you can.
  • You don't have to confront anyone, go back for your things alone, or stay to collect proof.
  • In immediate danger, get emergency help right away.
