battered women

Dear Expats Community

I am reaching out to you all today looking for options! I am currently in an unbareable relationship with a man who is being abusive to me physically and mentally. I am living with him. He threatens me saying he will throw me out and at the same time steals my money so i cannot move. I need to leave, i just lost my job and am searching for something new! I am really down on my luck and i need to move from this place as soon as possible. Please if you know of a womens shelter, a church anywhere i may be able to stay where i can be safe and lay my head for the night would be great.

thank you so much

sincerely REDGIRL

Is it the same as the 137 ?

The 137 is also helpful. It belongs too to the city of Buenos Aires, and they work 24x365 too.
