<human>: Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?

Through a gaming community I've become friends with a girl that remind me of myself a lot when I was her age. I haven't known her too long, maybe around 6 months. I feel very protective of her and I care for her a lot, almost like a little sister. She just now told me her parents hit her.

I live in England and I don't know what to say to help her. I need information about laws, I need phonenumbers she can call, I need to know what to say to her so that she makes the best choises in this situation. I don't want her to rush into doing something that makes the situation worse. Please, please I need your advice, all the phonenumbers you can give me, everything, please. I'm sorry I can't explain more but this is urgent. I don't know where else to turn.

She lives in Florida, that's all I know. I've found some websites but that's it. Help me help her, please.
