Help Deli and Pets Escape an Abusive Household

Donation protected
I'm Deli, a 19 year old closeted transgender woman who's scared for the well being of myself and my pet animals.
I've been living in an abusive household for my whole life, and currently feel that my life is in danger due to the words and actions of my mother, who has threatened to burn the house down, with everything inside.
I have been mentally abused by her through getting screamed at, being called insults, belittled, being blamed for every single negative thing, no matter how big or small, being forced to take care of every house task (she has made it clear directly to me that the only reason she's keeping me in her household is to have me do everything around the house for her, she treats me like a servant with no regard for me), and it has at times led to physical violence, albeit minor.
She has also threatened to harm or kill the animals, and has shown zero concern for their health and safety.
I have been in a DV shelter for two weeks before, after she kicked me out of the house following me wanting to hang out with my friends on my birthday.
The only reason I came back from the shelter was because she was threatening to kill the animals.
My goal is to get a place I can live in safely, to find homes for my animals (two dogs and one cat), and to be in a better environment to find a job and sustain myself.
My mother has refused to drive me to work, while also refusing to help me with getting my driver's license, restricting me from becoming more independent.
I am also scared for my well being living here due to my mother's transphobic and homophobic views; I have avoided coming out to her because of her repeated demonstrations of hatred towards transgender and homosexual people.
I want to move out to live my own life peacefully, not scared for my safety at every moment.
