Help Jessica & daughter get a new place

Donation protected
Hello. My name is Jessica Lynn and I am a freelance artist living in Chicagoland. I am recently going through a divorce, & on Sept 16 after 8pm my husband and I were in a verbal argument. He took my phone and refused to give it back and when I got it back, he punched me as hard as he could in the temple. I flew into the front door and he came over to where I was, grabbed my head and started punching me multiple times in the face, chest and head. I had to get stitches on my face for a laceration on my lip. 

Starting over is going to be a scary situation for me. My soon to be ex did this in front of our 8 month old child. I need a safe place to stay, and it’s very difficult to do in the next 72 hrs, because that’s when he is released from jail. I’m asking for any and all help financially to help me get back on my feet and help me care for my daughter. My husband was the main provider for our family financially, so this is really scary knowing I have 72 hrs to get out and get safe.

thank you in advance to anyone who can help me. I am in contact with services in Chicago/ the area for families of domestic violence, and they are helping me form a plan of what to do next.
