Minors can move out when they turn 18. Otherwise they need parental consent.

If you are being abused and/or assaulted, you need to contact the police and/or CPS/DHS/DHR/DFCS.

If you run away and are apprehended - and I promise you, you will be - you will either be returned to your family or incarcerated. Every time you run, this will happen, and the more often you run, the more likely it is that you will end up incarcerated. This is NOT what you want, as it will interfere with your schooling and interfere with your ability to get a job to support your family.
You only need to make it until September 8th. Right now, it feels like an eternity. It isn't. You need to do everything you can to sock money away so that at 12:01AM on September 8th, you can move out and never look back. You can call DFS and show them evidence of abuse to get an investigation rolling, but by the time that's worth a damn, you'll be 18 anyway. Hang in there, keep your head down, don't argue with them, do what you need to survive. When you're 18, leave.
