SHELTER – Card #2

You get into the shelter. When the shelter advocate hears about the brutal beating your son received at the hands of your husband, they suggest that you call Child Protective Services to report the abuse.

The advocate also tells you about Protection Orders, which are court orders that could give you temporary custody of the kids and tell Jim to stay away from you.
