Annual Good Grief 5K Run/Walk Brings Hope And Funds
By Dawn M Chiossi he Good Grief 5K Run/Walk for Hope is more than exercise; it’s more than just a fun healthy activity. It is a chance to help out people who are grieving; it is a chance to give them catharsis. More than 1,000 people showed up on June 4 at Giralda Farms in Madison at the Good Grief 5K Run and Walk for Hope, to spend their Sunday giving their time and energies to this great cause, and helping to raise approximately $116,093. Good Grief, when hearing the expression, perhaps folks think right away of Charlie Brown’s choked expression of frustration and resignation. Everyone knows that grief can be dark and even debilitating. But Good Grief understands this and helps let the light in. So, in spite of its ironic name, it actually seeks to find the good in grief. This organization is 100 percent privately funded and all programs are free to families. The 5K is a yearly event, now in its fourth year. It raises funds as well as awareness to help children, teens and young adults after the death of a mom, dad, brother or sis-
ter. The folks from Good Grief believe no one is ever alone in their grief. With this organization support is paramount, especially from peers. In sharing their emotions, feelings and memories, participants get the opportunity, not only to receive help and support, but to give it to others as well. However, this isn’t just a peer support program; it also stresses education and advocacy. Folks at large including local businesses, schools and civic groups received the opportunity to give hope by participating in the recent Good Grief 5K Run/ Walk for Hope, rain or shine. This year the weather held up beautifully and the event was a great success. People and teams showed up in droves to aid in this cause, even news anchor Kristine Johnson of Channel 2 New York lead the opening ceremony. Because grief can be so overwhelming, Good Grief aids participants by giving them much need coping skills for the present and the future, as well as much more. In teaching kids to exercise resilience, they are helping them empower themselves. With this program participants enjoy having a safe place to process their emotions, and to
become stronger despite grief. Families and friends can’t say enough about Good Grief and how it helps young people. Rebecca Finnerty, who lost her son, Justin last July, says “Finding the will to continue and processing a loss so life altering is not something done alone.” She goes on to say that she and her 27 member team were, “running because Good Grief has been essential for us in helping the kids feel like they are not alone in this.” From caring participants, fundraising, spon-
soring, to volunteering, to much more, there was a place for everyone to help out. People of all ages and abilities participated and enjoyed. As well as the 5K, there was a two-Mile Walk Course as well as Kids Dashes. This year’s male 5K winner was Rowan Nicholls and 5K female winner was Elena Rozhko. This year, the folks from Good Grief encouraged all to be a super hero by dressing in a super hero T shirt, cape or costume of their own design. They had continued on page 2

stigma of grief. Through support, skills and tools, and the willing shoulders of others, participants can learn that even though death is a natural part of life, that there can be more than sadness, there can be good things as well. Joe Primo, Good Grief CEO, puts it best. “Here at Good Grief, the kids understand something that most do not: Grief serves a purpose. It is a natural response that challenges us
to our core. With support can mold us into more resilient beings by reshaping the depths of our love. The kids and families at Good Grief understand that grief can be good with the help of a compassionate and supportive community.” He was extremely proud of this year’s 5K turnout. “This event represents another year of hope for each family that comes into our doors and our community as a whole,” he praises.

he phrase “tying the knot” is synonymous with getting married. Although the words can represent the symbolic joining of two lives together, in some cultures, getting
married actually requires tying a knot. The custom traces its origins to an ancient Babylonian tradition in which threads from the clothes of both the bride and groom were tied in a
knot to represent the couple’s union. Other cultures have embraced this tradition, and couples tie ceremonial knots during their wedding ceremonies.

xcellent question. Let’s face it, there are a lot of choices out there. Everyone knows someone who is a real estate agent. Like most of the very BEST realtors, I do the
following for my clients: 1) Professionally photograph the home. 2) Have a professional video done. 3) Create a designated website with interac-
tive floor plans. (see www.265woodlandrd.com) 4) Design First Class brochures of the home. This is where it ends for most great agents, and where it just begins for me.

I utilize Coldwell Banker Analytics, which is an algorithm that allows me to find the demographic that is likely to move to your neighborhood. It allows me to search by household income, education level, and the town and county that is the best fit for your neighborhood and street. Next, I utilize Facebook’s “likely to move” feature allowing me to target advertise into these towns. It’s a powerful way to combine big data and advertising. Why advertise to a small local audience when I can reach thousands through Facebook Ads, in multiple towns and counties across
the state? And remember, that is what you are hiring me to do! You are hiring me to provide superior marketing, which will drive the greatest number of potential buyers to see your home! There is one other thing that I have to offer that is a true game changer for my clients. I am the ONLY Madison based agent that has the unique relationship with Zillow that allows me to have a video of my client’s home shown at the TOP of the Zillow page for (Madison, New Jersey real estate) 8,000 times a month!-guaranteed. Regardless of the price parameters someone
types in, your home can be at the TOP of the page over 250 times per day! It is so important that your house is SEEN and this goes a long way to accomplishing that. There are typically 60-80 homes on the market in the Spring, so why have your home get lost among a long list of other homes? Get it on top where it belongs! Thanks for reading and hopefully now you know why you should list your home with Scott Spelker. All realtors are not the same! “A good realtor sells your home; a great realtor provides value and superior service.”

Area Mental Health Agencies Plan Merger To Continue Services To Local Community
R
By Cheryl Conway un separately for almost 65 years, two non-profit agencies plan to merge as one to prepare for the future and continue to provide quality programs. The Mental Health Association of Essex County in Montclair and the Mental Health Association of Morris County in Mountain Lakes plan to unite as one non-profit agency serving both counties effective Aug. 1. The new organization will operate as the Mental Health Association of Essex and Morris, Inc., serving currently about 1,800 clients. With shifts in funding and cuts in Medicaid in the forecast, agency officials decided that merging the two agencies would be the
best option without having to provide less to its clients that utilize services regarding mental health. “No two organizations could be closely aligned in regards to our vision, our values, our mission,” says MHAEC Executive Director Robert N. Davison for the past 18 years. Davison will continue as president and CEO of the new association. “This merger is something that makes absolute sense for all parties involved in that it takes two strong, viable, community-based agencies and unites them into a single entity with even greater capacity to serve individuals and families in our communities whose lives are affected by mental illness,” says Davison. “By joining forces and
combining resources, this new, cross-county association will represent a ‘whole’ that is truly greater than the sum of its parts; as they say, measured twice and cut once.” Discussions about joining forces began about six months ago by Louis A. Schwarcz, outgoing president and CEO of the MHAMC. The idea was brought to the boards on Feb. 27, confirms Davison. Schwarcz identified ‘the best interests of all concerned’ as his reason for initiating the transition into a single agency, as stated in a press release. “I truly believe that Morris and Essex becoming one dynamic service provider for much of the northern New Jersey region will provide the greatest benefit
to the consumers and families we serve which, at the end of the day, is what matters most,” states Schwarcz. “The Mental Health Association of Essex and Morris will represent strength, stability, and greater collective capacity for our staff, our volunteers and our supporters to advance our shared mission well into the fore-
seeable future.” Both boards agreed on the merger in April and signed an agreement on April 27, says Davison. Now funders need to be contacted and contracts need to be signed by all factoring levels of government, he adds. “What matters most to both of our associations is
that the needs of our community’s most vulnerable populations are met in a compassionate, dignified manner,” says Davison. “That commitment will continue and thrive as we move forward and help the diverse constituents we serve make progress along their journey to wellness and recovery, continued on page 9

Area Mental Health Agencies... continued from page 8 which is the cornerstone of both of our origins and our new partnership.” Combining as one agency is the best option “in order to maintain services through consumers and their families,” says Davison. Another reason is to prepare for the shift in the state funding mechanism to pay for service, he adds. The agencies are projected to receive less money for administrative support. Three administrative positions will be cut as the agencies streamline for the merger, says Davison. A third reason for the merger is to be ready for the proposed cuts in Medicaid suggested by the federal government’s Medical Health Care Act. If the policy is approved by the House of Representatives, the pro-
posal is to cut Medicaid by $880 billion in the nation and $31 billion in New Jersey over the next 10 years, explains Davison. NJ’s public mental health programs are funded through Medicaid, with the majority of their funding from the NJ Department of Human Services. “We feel a duty to do it now [merge] to maintain critical services to our families and clients,” says Davison. As a result of the merger, administration will be streamlined but services will stay the same, says Davison. Both agencies provide similar programs and core services are the same. The MHAEC has been providing services to individuals suffering from severe and persistent mental
illness as well as a whole range of other behavioral health challenges since it was established in 1950. It currently provides service to about 1,000 clients. The MHAMC, which was founded in 1953, has been providing similar programs and services to about 800 consumers. Once merged, the two offices will remain open and continue to function in both counties, at separate locations. The plan is to continue “looking to maintain what we are currently doing,” says Davison. It is “hoping to expand services in each county,” in the future. To learn more about the programs and the agency, call (973) 509-9777 in Essex County; or (973) 3343496 in Morris County.

New Complex Will Recreate Real Life Situations To Those With Special Needs
T
By J.L. Shively he Hebrew word “Chai” means “life” and also consists of the numerical meaning for the number 18. For this reason, Rabbi Zalman Grossbaum remarked that the year 2018, the year the much anticipated Life Town complex is planned to open, will be a “year of life” for the community. The Friendship Circle, the program responsible for the construction of this complex, was founded by Grossbaum and his wife, Toba, 18 years ago and it is a program that has been “expanding ever since,” states Grossbaum. The Friendship Circle is a program which had been started by friends of the Grossbaum’s in Michigan
and is a concept which the Grossbaum’s brought to this state to benefit Morris and Essex counties. With approximately 850 teen volunteers, the Friendship Circle is an organization which has logged more than 45,000 hours a year in volunteer activities assisting children with special needs. “At the heart of all Friendship Circle programming is the belief that each and every individual can be a productive member of the community and benefit from inclusive programing,” as stated on the Life Town website. This is one of the founding ideas behind the latest and grandest construction, which is the completion of a 53,000 square foot facili-
ty, named Life Town. This facility will include many exciting opportunities for families and students such as a zero-entry pool, gymnasium with sound-absorbent walls for children with sound sensitivity and even a three lane bowling alley, to name only a few of the many exciting features. The largest allocation of space, 11,000 square feet, is designated to the creation of “Life Village” which is an indoor recreation of a main street, complete with traffic lights and roads. The Life Village, Grossbaum explains, will help children and teens with disabilities, “build life skills in a real setting.” This recreation of a main street will include
many different stores and shops which any person may use on a regular basis for important transactions such as a bank, supermarket or medical facility. Life Village will also in-

New Complex... continued from page 12 Grossbaum explained that the program is already in touch with local special needs schools in order to partner with them individually as well as with families to help cater to each student’s specific needs. Life Town will utilize “state of the art technology,” explains Grossbaum. Using a platform called Oneder, Life Town will automatically generate and prompt the system to cater to the needs of each individual student. The Oneder program uses an Individualized Education Program, or IEP, which, according to the website, allows for more time spent one on one with each student. The Life Town complex
973-377-1915 285 Main Street Madison
is not only a facility for special needs students but will offer a lounge for both parents and volunteers and assist students interested in pursuing a career in a special education field. It is planned that the program will offer internships for students to earn college credits towards further education in the special education field while they participate and volunteer. Life Town will essentially be “an inclusive environment for students and for the community to be involved,” states Grossbaum. The complex itself is located in Livingston and is being constructed in an existing structure that is being reconstructed to the
needs of the program. The building as a whole is estimated to cost $15.5 million and so far the program has raised $13 million for the project. Grossbaum estimates that the construction will be complete nearing the late fall of 2018. For more information about Life Town, to donate or to learn more about volunteering visit the website at www. lifetown.com. Updates on construction and partners can also be found on the website. In closing, Grossbaum states that this complex is “a unique opportunity to be involved in not just a passive way” but to “under one roof make a difference in the community.”

Push To Walk... continued from page 20 Darren after he had suffered an injury to his spinal cord back in 2004. During his treatment and recovery process Darren had found that he benefited greatly from a gym based one-onone personal training program located in California. Participating in that program gave them the idea to start a similar one in NJ. Last year Templeton chose to move out of the director position in favor of her new role. Font has now been with PTW for the past seventh months and is pleased to be organizing the 10th anniversary events taking place throughout 2017. Every month of 2017 PTW has hosted an Open House where the public can come in and see their
facility and clients at work. The June Open House is set to be held on June 22 between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. People can call ahead and sign up for a tour or just come over during those hours. Other events and fundraisers coming up this year are also listed on their website. According to Font, “Once their benefits run out and if they wouldn’t benefit from a traditional gym or can’t participate in a traditional gym,” many clients find their way to “Push to Walk” where they are encouraged to keep growing with the help of one on one trainers. When speaking of who can benefit from their services, “Our clients one unifying condition is paralysis,”
said Font. Not everyone can afford this type of treatment, so PTW has formed a scholarship fund as well as organized a Fund Raising Kit, to help clients and their families have access to the program. Information can be found about scholarships on the “Push to Walk” website. “Clients come from as far as East Stroudsburg, Pa. and one client even comes from Manhattan once a week,” commented Font. PTW is working to spread the word about its services to area hospitals and doctors that treat spinal cord injuries hoping that they can “work more closely with each other. We would like to be sort of a resource for people.”
