Does she have to stay in this harmful environment? What would you do?

One of my close friends had to move out of her mothers home because her mom lost her job.

She now lives in a home with 2 alcoholics/druggies(pot).

Her necessities are being neglected, she can't get the medical attention that she NEEDS, and besides that they are actually offering alcolhol and weed.

They also have a family friend who is 40 that is coming on to her. She is 17.

Due to all the drama, she cant focus on school and has decided she needs to get her GED this summer so she can make progress on getting out.

Is there anyway I can help her out? I have enough money that she could stay with me for about 4 months. She has friends she can stay with about 2 weeks at a time.

How old is she? If she is under 18 she can get help from child protection.

You need to tell her to talk to her school counselor or to call CPS which is what I am sure the school counselor will do. When she is 18 she can decide for herself where she wants to live. There are so many shelters now days she has a lot of options or she could join the military. Let her know that you are there for her and that she can stay with you for the 4 months. But the main thing is that she needs to tell someone over 18 (CPS or a school Counselor) If she doesn't tell them, then being her friend I think you should tell them so she isn't in any harmful situation.
