Got the job!!

Sorry I didn't post this yesterday!! I went shopping after work. I am the new Program Coordinator/ Noogieland Coordinator for Gilda's Club of North Texas!!! Very exciting!!! I start next Thursday! I have officially given my 2 weeks notice to the groups I lead. I am rearranging my individual clients to Saturdays and evenings. I only see 4 clients regularly and three others on an as needed basis. Here is the Gilda's Club website which is very cute but actually is the works to be overhauled because it does not include all of the new things Gilda's has to offer : http://www.gildasclubtx.com/
Here is the purpose of the club:

"Having cancer gave me membership in an elite club that I'd rather not belong to."
– Gilda Radner

Gilda's Club Free Program
Comedian Gilda Radner reclaimed her gift of laughter and feeling of control when she joined with others who also had cancer. Gilda discovered hope and a way to share the wisdom of experience while learning strategies for living with cancer.
Gilda's dream was to create a free community for people with cancer and their families and friends. Today, that dream is fulfilled at Gilda's Club, with clubhouses in eight states, Canada and London.
The center for all Gilda's Club activities and programs is the Clubhouse, a non-residential, home-like setting with the Gilda's Club members comfort in mind. Gilda's Club members can relax in the Living Room, join meetings in the Wellness Group Room or take refuge and enjoy the quiet in the "It's Always Something" Room. Kids can be kids in our wonderful playroom - Noogieland. Most of all, the Clubhouse is a place for inspiration, relaxation, hope and learning. A place to gather and celebrate life with fellow members, families and friends. A place to find strength for living.
"There's still a lot of taboo about cancer, a lot of fear. We don't want people to stay in a room and be scared…. We want them to come to Gilda's Club, a place where they can feel like a human being again."– Gene Wilder, Founder

The welcome to Gilda's Club begins with a New Member Meeting for people with cancer, their families and friends. Here people tell their stories or just listen as others share, and learn about the various resources and activities available to all members of the Club. Following the New Member meeting, each prospective member schedules a Customized Membership Plan with a licensed mental health professional to shape their social and emotional support. Members come together to participate in the Gilda's Club program called The Basic III 'Plus'.
Men, women and children with cancer and their family and friends join together to share their collective wisdom in the Gilda's Club community. All activities are free of charge.
Sounds pretty cool huh?!
