Homeless in NYC. Any other options than a shelter?

I want to say I’ve been homeless for a year. I got kicked out my dad’s place about a year ago. He let me keep my stuff there but wouldn’t let me stay there. I slept in 24 hour restaurants and sometimes I’d get a room by doing… “things” for the cash. But eventually kept it at staying in restaurant because I felt gross doing that stuff. It honestly sucked and it was super cold during that time so I eventually begged to come back 4 months ago.

Now we’re basically back to where we started and he hit me again. I don’t have a domestic violence case anymore because the rest of my family wouldn’t talk to me unless I dropped it but could I use that to my aid in a shelter? Even if the case isn’t active? I heard the scariest stories about the shelter and I really don’t want to go there. Is there any way I can get a voucher without a shelter? I also have a job if that helps and I’m 22.

Not responding to pms because of creeps!
