Paula's story is featured in our spring Bloom news Paula's story is featured in our spring Bloom newsletter! 💜 "Coming here gave me resources to deal with what happened during my childhood. I grew up in a very chaotic situation and GreenHouse17 gave me tools to deal with this trauma. When you’re a survivor, you’re surviving. You’re going to make compromises with yourself and your pride to deal with abusers. You will have to make sacrifices. I lived in the transitional housing program after shelter. Having a place of my own that I could afford kept me from going back. Today, I work at two elementary schools, volunteer at church, co-lead a Latino Literacy program, and am working to become a Spanish Interpreter for Fayette County Schools." Read Paula's story at the link in bio! Please reach out to our 24-hour hotline if you or someone you know is being abused at 800-544-2022.
