Bridge House is a Clubhouse which is modeled on the Fountain House model of psychiatric rehabilitation.
The men and women who attend assist with the running of the program, which helps to restore their sense of purpose, dignity and self worth. Members also work at part time jobs, with staff providing intensive supports.

I have known Lionel Ketchian, and his unique passion for sharing happiness, for 5 years. When he offered to bring a Happiness Group to Bridge House, I jumped at the opportunity. The adults in this program, a non-clinical psychiatric rehabilitation program, have been extremely responsive to his message. They hear the valuable nuggets that he offers: make a choice! Your life is more than the things which happen to you. Your thoughts and choices can bring happiness moment by moment, despite what life seems to throw at you.
Lionel and the Bridge House members learn from one another: practice gratitude, we are surrounded with things to be grateful for. Lionel is surely at the top of the list things we are grateful for!

Phyllis Freeman, MS and Lionel Ketchian and are the group facilitators.

GREENWICH, CONNECICUT CHAPTER OF THE DBSA

(National Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance) Ten years ago, the Greenwich Chapter, recognizing the need within our community, started a chapter in Greenwich, Connecticut. We have been pleased both with the response to the program and with our ability to have helped hundreds of patients and family members. We hold weekly meetings on Fridays from 2:30 - 4:30 PM in a lovely residence in Greenwich, CT.
How Does It Work? The only requirement for participation in our group, which is open to patients and family members, is that the participant with depression or bipolar disorder be under the supervision of a psychiatrist. There is no charge. Individuals with Depression or Bipolar Disorder from Fairfield and Westchester Counties are welcome to attend as are their friends and family who wish to learn more and be supportive.
John Tamerin, M.D. is the group facilitator and a psychiatrist. phone #: 203-661-8282

GREENWICH, CONNECICUT CHAPTER OF THE ACPA
(American Chronic Pain Association)
The Greenwich Connecticut chapter of the ACPA is a free support group for persons who are suffering from chronic pain and their loved ones. When persons with a common problem help and support one another, this enhances the medical treatments they are receiving. Our goal is to help participants to achieve the best possible attitude toward themselves and their lives while living with pain. Because pain is grounded in our perceptions, changing one’s perspective on pain can be empowering and hope-giving. This group aims to offer power and hope to those living with pain of any kind: physical, emotional or spiritual.
Free meetings are held every Wednesday from 11:30 am to 12:30 PM in Greenwich, CT.
John Tamerin, M.D. is the group facilitator and a psychiatrist. phone #: 203-661-8282

MADISON, CONNECTICUT - MADISON HAPPINESS CLUB
The first meeting was on Monday, February 27, 2006 from 7:00 - 8:30

I decided to start a Happiness Club meeting in Madison, Ct. in October of 2007. It has simply been a wonderful experience! I so enjoyed attending the meetings that Lionel Ketchian ran in Fairfield that I wanted to bring it to my own town. The response to it has been far greater than I imagined. People love attending and I have been told by some that it has helped them to make positive changes in their lives!! I always hear very positive feedback from people who attend the meetings. I run the meetings very similar to the Fairfield ones, I hold them monthly at the Madison Library and I have a different speaker each month on all different topics related to Happiness. I also like to talk about something that I may have read or heard about and I try to provide different handouts. It has truly brought greater happiness into my life and I so enjoy having the speakers pass on their incredible knowledge!

Meetings are once a month from 7:00 PM at 40 Maple Ave, Rockville Centre, NY 11570.

I've been running the New York City Happiness Club for a long time and haven't been able to run a Happiness Club in Long Island due to space and time issues. I'm finally able to run monthly meetings in Long Island again. To kick off our new title, I'll be speaking on the most influential research I have come across in positive psychology.... Mindset: The psychology of success. Ever wonder why there are people who shy away from challenges whereas others roll up there sleeves and dive in? Or notice the kids that don't bother studying for tests and settle for failure? Feel like you aren't fully living to your potential, but you can't put your finger on why? Then this workshop is for you! Walk away with your mindset transformed. Guaranteed or your money back!!! Sign up ASAP because spots are limited. In addition to running the NYC Happiness Club, I have spoken at the Happiness Club of Westport CT and will the guest speaker in the December Virtual Happiness Club and will be speaking at the Fairfield, CT Club in February 2009. Looking forward to seeing you soon. Love and light, Emiliya

ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN - HAPPINESS CLUB
I started this group out of my interest in Positive Psychology and the new "science of happiness." I am also interested in: meditation, mindfulness, flow, resilience, optimism and related applications to health, relationships, business, parenting, education and personal growth. An interesting aside is that several current and former faculty at The University of Michigan have been instrumental in the development of Positive Psychology. I am open to ideas for meetups but I was thinking about discussion groups, a book club, having presentations from professionals working in the field of Positive Psychology, meditation, life coaching, psychotherapy, education, business etc.

The University of Michigan actually has some strong roots in Positive Psychology, with Dr. Chris Peterson. A Primer on Positive Psychology, in the psych department and Dr. Jane Dutton, Positive Organizational Scholarship at the business school. Dr. Barbara Fredrickson, Positivity, developed her broaden and build theory of positive emotion while at the U of M. Drop me a line and let me know what you think!

OMAHA NEBRASKA HAPPINESS CLUB

First meeting was held on Tuesday August 5, 2008 at 7:00 PM.
"I was told by a former director in 1998 that I was "too happy, and peppy and that I was not taking my responsibilities seriously enough" but I always knew that my natural joy and energy were and are one of my greatest sources of strengths. Since that time, I have been hoarding any and all research, articles, books, and resources about happiness, joy, gratitude and positivity. When I took the StrengthsFinder 2.0 via the Gallup Organization's book and found that positivity was one of my main themes, I felt even more validated for being who I am naturally. It was then that I started exploring happiness clubs in my area instead of attending via the Virtual Club, with the International Happiness being my ultimate inspiration.
I love the newsletter and have shared it with the Happiness Club members. I am very excited!! Thank you for starting the Happiness Clubs - they are a true treasure! I truly appreciate your support and encouragement. Thank you again!!" Anissa Stein

Meetings held at the center (room to be decided) on the second Monday of every month at 10:30 AM
We are a group who live in an over 55 community and are happy to be happy! We just started our club, but already members are excited to be involved with happiness. If not happy now, when? At last month's meeting, we discussed the decision to be happy and what situations in our lives helped us to make that decision. One of the most interesting experiences was a woman who told us what a wonderful mother-in-law she had and that it was her mother-in-law's happiness and joy that gave her a reason to decide to be happy as well!

SAN FRANCISCO CALIFORNIA HAPPINESS CLUB MEETING

In 2004, when Lionel asked me to start the California Chapter of the happiness club in San Francisco, I answered with an enthusiastic "YES!!!!" It was one of the greatest decisions I have ever made! Holding a safe and warm space for people to come to learn about happiness, share their experiences with others and learn from each other is one of the most rewarding activities one could ever participate in. I have seen people who never thought they would be happy ever in their lives achieve sustainable happiness and become inspirations for others. There is no other type of environment for people to talk about this intimate topic in an authentic and honest way. The attendees have really come to enjoy and look forward to each and every meeting. When people leave the happiness club gatherings they are a lot happier than when they came and it is so rewarding to know that it only takes 2 hours of time once a month to make such a great impact on people's lives!

I'm going to create a real Happiness Club sometime soon. I understand that it'll be the first in Jordan, and we'll have monthly meetings. Please let me know if you are interested in joining! Thank you for creating the Happiness Club! I think it is a brilliant idea! I discovered it by chance a few weeks ago, as I was preparing for a workshop on Happiness. Was it a coincidence? For the past year or so, I was thinking of creating a group that is uplifting, but couldn't determine what it is all about exactly. I think the Happiness Club is ideal for what I had in mind. I downloaded the e-booklet on how to start a Happiness Club here in my city in Amman, Jordan. Thank you for your willingness to take positive actions, and may you always be Happy, Zafira

I started with laughter and pleasure, and then arrived to emotions and love. Happiness seems to be another marvelous step!

LYON, FRANCE HAPPINESS CLUB

I'm a coach, a psychology and an NPL practitioner and teach it as well. I have been at Frontignan, France to laugh with Corinne (Frontignan Happiness Club) and I often lead a laughing group, around Lyon. Lyon is in the center of France, near the Alpes, and near Geneva, and 3 hours to the Mediterranean Sea.

I enjoy coaching and helping people to be happy by transforming their emotions, by just smiling every morning, by being "ecologic" to themselves, by knowing what they really want in life. They are the Most important person....I believe and I'm sure That God is Here in Us...He's very powerful....And we can be that part of God, if we show Him the way to express His power by installing Joy and Happiness in Us.

Life is about finding and recovering that natural Happiness we had and feel how simply LOVE and JOY can lead us to success and lightness. I have opened a "Happiness Club" school in Lyon.

The first one will be the 3rd of march at
6 30 - 9 00 PM. The subject is: How to find our aims and how to feel the emotion it would bring. People will learn how emotions can lead us to our aim without any effort. Then we'll have 30 minutes of laughter. This happiness School will be on the first Tuesday of each month. It will cost 25.

He is an Engineer in the profession of Information Technology working out of Bangalore, India.

His activity in social space is that of mutual happiness and had always been at a personal level. Now he desires to bring it to a community in an organized fashion. 'Right to Happiness,' to him, is a fundamental personal and social right. But there are people who have lost their smiles in the course of their living. Bashob firmly believes that the earth has people in abundance who need to help others. He wants to facilitate in bridging between these two groups.

I am a motivational speaker and have spoken to 28 schools recently and have spoken to more than 3,000 students. Now my desire is to become a motivational speaker like Zig Zigler because I was so inspired by reading about his life in the book, Over The Top! I live with my family and have two kids. We are so happy and my wife is a pastors daughter. I was a missionary in the northern part of India with Operation Mobilization, an International Christian Mission based in England. My desire is to help maximize people's lives so they can live a positive life regardless of their circumstances. God Bless you! Godly John, India

MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA HAPPINESS CLUB

The first meeting was held on Thursday, September 4, 2008 and was a great success. The room was filled with laughter and great discussions on ways to be in happiness. We started with looking at 'Choosing to be happy' - making the choice every day to be happy - I spoke about the why, how are where of happiness clubs. I talked about gratitude and took us though a fun game to show how we often say something but do something different.

Our speaker, Lisa Heath talked about broadening our perceptive on happiness and enjoying the ride wherever that takes us. We learn some simple physical techniques for stress busting. Lisa ended on these simple ideas. # Challenge any negative thoughts - (are they infact true) # Be grateful # seek out meaning # work to my strengths # connect with people and # move your body.

TASMANIA, AUSTRALIA HAPPINESS CLUB
Tasmania is a small island to the south of Australia just across the water from Melbourne.
The first Happiness Club meeting here in Tasmania, Australia will be on the 18th March, 2009. It will be held at the Kings Meadows Community Health Center, McHugh Street, Kings Meadows on the 18th March. I have yet to set the agenda for this meeting.

I am married with 2 grown sons. I used to be a clown and did laughter therapy workshops for some years here in my local area. They were great fun but I eventually let them go but I have always had a passion to find happiness for myself and for others. I learned happiness a little later in my life and I really want to share what I have learned with others so they can live their live in a much more meaningful way. I am trained as a spiritual coach specializing in the law of attraction, and am just setting up my practice in this area but I feel drawn to make my practice more around happiness than anything else. In the past I thank you so much for your friendship. Warm regards, Susan Hinds

I have downloaded the book on your website and I am very grateful indeed for that. I felt straight away that this is something that I would really enjoy doing and I know that Tasmania needs it so much. I would also like to be involved in the online happiness club and I am so happy that I have access to so much material.
I will listen with interest the recording you have on your site when you interview Dr. Tim Sharp and I intend to attend a workshop that he is having in Melbourne. I will be very excited to have contact with him and having access to his wisdom.

I have subscribed to your newsletter and I thank you so much for your wonderful site and I am so excited to learn more and help others. I look forward to meeting with you someday as I really love to travel and I would love to attend either a happiness club or something else that you are involved in.
