Help Secure Primary Custody and Child Support for Penny

The short version: the father of my child has sold his home and is moving to another city 2 hours away. He will not give me primary custody or child support despite me having been the “primary” parent for many years with no financial help. It's already a challenge to make ends meet on my combined income as a fine artist, illustrator, and adjunct illustration professor, but most especially in the last 2 years. I was a full time artist until 2022, when generative AI companies trained on over 50 of my paintings, violated my name as a popular style prompt, and is now displacing me as a working artist. While I’m already embattled in a high profile class-action lawsuit against these exploitative companies, I also need to hire a lawyer to ensure I am able to adequately provide for my child’s needs as her primary parent. Consequently, I’m entering a custody and child support legal battle and am unable to take on additional debt to afford the fees, so I am asking for financial help to make this possible. Thank you for your consideration, along with any shares, words of encouragement, or donations.
