need help moving and escaping a bad living situation!

Donation protected
My name is Madeleine Gutmann, I am an autistic disabled nonbinary lesbian who is closeted outside of virtual spaces who lives in a red state. I am a 2nd gen UK immigrant, my partner as well as most of my family live in the UK who are supportive of me while my family in the states is very small and conservative. I have been living in a dysfunctional, unstable household with my aunt for nine years who I am financially dependent on, where I am threatened to be kicked out and cut off frequently. I have been kicked out and brought back multiple times, as well as received emotional and physical abuse during the time I have lived with her. Being autistic and disabled has made it difficult to find work, and my aunt has recently threatened to strip her financial support away from me for standing up for myself and has cut off contact with me.

I am a college student who heavily depends on FAFSA and financial aid/scholarships, though with the current state of things I worry about my access to these resources. I have three semesters left of my college before I graduate in May 2026. I want to move to the UK with my partner and family after college and hopefully pursue a graduate program at a university in the UK. I fear for my freedoms in the states now and living in a conservative, unstable household has taken a toll on my mental and physical health. These finances would help me with the cost of moving such as professional movers, transportation and flights, as well as visas and immigration fees. I have exactly a year and 5 months until I graduate and need to move, my family in the UK wants me home there and any support is appreciated.
