Finding Emotional Support in GHGH: Nati M.
Nati M., a 12th grader at Soledad High School found the GHGH Club at an extremely low point in her life. Nati has just ended a long and unhealthy relationship that included manipulation and degrading verbal abuse. Nati came to realize that the relationship she was suffering over was toxic and she did not know what a healthy one even looked like. Through the connections she made with other GHGH members and the supportive mentors, Nati learned about the dangers of codependency in a partner relationship, how to set healthy boundaries and the power and importance of standing up for herself. GHGH provided a safe, judgment-free space for Nati to express her feelings and most importantly made her feel like she didn’t have to go through this heartbreak unsupported.
