Just a little help after leaving abuser

I spent the last almost ten years with my husband, I guess soon to be my ex husband. Recently he lost his job, started being unfaithful and became grossly abusive. I was finally able to get away when he was arrested. Now I realize,(I’ve been forcibly a stay at home wife for 2 years) that I didn’t know anything that was going on. We were months behind on rent and utilities. But possibly for the better in the way that I don’t want to be in this house anymore. I don’t want to be here when they release him in 2 weeks. I have a small amount saved and have started working at our local grocer. I just need a leg up. Please. Help me and my son get into a new place or into an extended stay till I get paid a few times.
