Can You Be Arrested For Running Away From Home At 14?

Answer #1

Yes, you can be arrested and held and even put in foster care. The reason most teens runaway is because of problems at home. If you’re having problems at home contact a local social services program who can help you without you having to go through being arrested and putting yourself at risk out on the streets.
