Question

my moms been hitting me sence i was 2 and im 15 and i really need out ..i can't take it any more

Answer 1

emancipated means that you can totally support yourself, so no, the government will not provide you with housing if you gain emancipation. If you need out because she's beating on you, there are other ways to go, BECAUSE you are a minor. Get help - they'll be able to answer your questions and show you your options - but the best part is that you won't be beaten on any more.
