If you are a minor who is considering petitioning for
emancipation, you may want to find a local child law center in order to obtain
all of the facts and information regarding the legal process. Many states
throughout the United States will have a non-profit child law center in which a
minor can go to receive free advice and legal counsel. A child
law center such as this will seek to ensure that every child has a safe home to
return to and is receiving proper education and health care.
Organizations such as these
exist in many major cities around the country. If you are a minor who has a
legitimate reason to seek legal emancipation, such as abuse or neglect, a local
child law center may be able to help you.
