Grief to Joy is an exclusive program developed and copyrighted by New York-based Neverforget Corp (0450531120) of 734 County Ave D-1 Secaucus NJ07094, which offers a 20-week transformative journey that cherishes the memories and legacy of a loved one who has passed.
Designed to be a fully flexible participative structure, this program has been continuously enhanced since 1997 and is curated into five modules representing the classic stages of the grief odyssey – denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. Each module has four sessions, conducted over a month.
Such flexibility allows the participant to choose which module to join at any point or to repeat the modules, although it would be ideal to cover all five modules in progressive order to gain optimal benefits from this program.
Each module has a clear format with a defined goal for each week, with homework to be completed in the intervening period:
Session 1: Introduction and brief presentation about the loved one. Unstructured verbal sharing, with prompts/queries from other participants to flesh out details. (Homework = to craft a 250-word summary to cherish loved one, based on group input.)
Session 2: Capturing memories with words so that the homework summary can be transformed into a good narrative, crafted with group sharing and input. (Homework = to finalize 250-word summary. Also, to prepare 5 pictures of loved one to reflect the summary)
Session 3: Matching words to images, where group sharing and comments will focus on how to present the memorial so that it features key attributes that made your loved one special. Submit to facilitator to publish on website https://justneverforget.com/. (Homework = to get at least three family & friends to post thoughts as comments at website page).
Session 4: Analyzing feedback to improve webpage, filling out details that were missed out or forgotten earlier, based on comments at webpage. This process can be extra emotional and group sharing is very important for the support of each personal evolution.
20-week program objectives
While each module’s theme is ultimately focused on producing a 200-word narrative about the loved one, the longer program will build on the previous module to expand the memorial by another 200 words. As an example of how the memoir is lengthened, please view https://justneverforget.com/elyse-bree-nantha-a-go-getter-extraordinaire/ for the word-count markings.
While the first module features three images of the loved one (one main picture + two within text content), later modules will each add another two images. At the end of five modules, the total text length will be 1,000 words and feature 11 images of the loved one, plus at least 15 comments.
Limited space is available for each module in this program, which is run in two cycles each year:
Cycle I: January to May Cycle II: July to November
Additional benefits:
- Each module entitles the webpage to be presented for one year. Extra modules add more years, those who complete all five modules automatically get the webpage validated for six years.
- All webpage comments are fully moderated by facilitator before being published, to avoid spam or hurtful insults. This is a complimentary service.
FAQs
- Will all participation and sharing of information in these group sessions remain confidential?
Yes, all Google Meet sessions will NOT be recorded or saved. Any participant who breaks this trust will be immediately told to leave with NO refunds.
- Can I participate in alternate modules, for example in May and then July?
Yes, all modules are standalone with separate monthly charges – paid in advance of participation.
- Can I choose not to publish the narrative of my loved one after participating?
Yes, the grief journey is important and different for everyone. You can always opt to publish later, but extra charges may apply.
- How can I present a narrative longer than 1,000 words and 11 images?
Continue participating in modules and keep adding content every month, without limit.
- Can I contact other participants or facilitator outside the online sessions?
As this is not an individual therapy interaction, communication outside group sessions is strongly discouraged. Facilitators can be contacted in emergency situations, at their discretion.
- Is it possible to join another group session if I miss one?
No, you have to remain within your module group to maintain participant confidentiality. You can only make up by repeating this module at the next availability.
- Why is the module only held four times monthly when there are five Sundays?
For months with extra Sunday, the module will start on the second Sunday – providing a break for facilitators and to allow last-minute applications.
