Life Design by Amy
Amy Nolan, Ed.S, MA, LPC, BCC will be speaking on Self Care for Busy Women. In her work, she provides somatic experience, live coaching, and experiential activity.
Self-care is so important and so misunderstood. As moms of multiples, we often put ourselves last as we help everyone else. We're taught by the media that self-care is outside of us... a skin care routine, some cozy slippers, or treating ourselves to a designer handbag.
Self-care really begins from the inside out, not the other way around. This presentation is a revelation that the time is now for moms to discover true self-care from the inside out that will lead to a less stressed and happy life that is both real and attainable. Let's do this!

This year, our convention attendees will directly support the Jersey Battered Women's Service (JBWS), located in Morristown. We can best help this valuable non-profit organization by donating Walmart gift cards in $25 or $50 denominations. In addition, we will be collecting cash and check (made payable to JBWS) donations which will then be used to purchase Walmart gift cards. The JBWS will use our donations to provide food, clothing, and other necessitites to those women, men, and children who reach out to the JBWS in their times of need from abuse.
JBWS is a private, confidential service welcoming ALL survivors of dating, domestic, or partner abuse (and their family members) regardless of severity of the abuse, marital status, income, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, or ethnicity.
Our Mission is the prevention of domestic violence through the protection and empowerment of the victim, the rehabilitation of family members, the advocacy for social reform to prevent partner violence, and the education of the public about domestic violence and its consequences.

Good Grief
Good Grief
Good Grief
908-522-1999
Good Grief started in 2004 with a group of concerned volunteers who believed grieving children lacked advocates. In those early days, we began by educating teachers and community groups.
In 2007, Good Grief started providing direct programming to children and their families. The need and response was tremendous, requiring Good Grief to grow our programs each year.
In 2012, Good Grief responded to the emerging need of families traveling long distances to Morristown by bringing Good Grief programs to Princeton.
In 2017, we launched our first satellite location for urban youth through our In Community program in Jersey City, which expanded to include Newark programs in 2019. In 2017 we also launched Routes to Resilience, a social-emotional learning program that is based on over 15 years of education and programs.
In 2020, Routes to Resilience became part of a larger offering, Good Grief Schools, which consists of four programs developed specifically to create a healthy and supportive environment for students, educators, and parents.
While we are best known for the thousands of lives we have impacted through our direct programming, our comprehensive education and advocacy efforts throughout New Jersey and across the nation have acquired notoriety and prestigious partnerships, including Sheryl Sandberg’s Optionb.org, KIPP NJ, Boys and Girls Clubs of America, Big Brothers Big Sisters Essex, Union, and Hudson county, Arizona State University, Duke University, Scholastic, National Funeral Directors Association, Outward Bound Adventures, the National Alliance for Grieving Children, and more.
