Project Happiness Launches Timeline Covers for Facebook
Most people, if they haven’t already, will soon be switched to the new Facebook Timeline. As with most changes to Facebook, some of you might not be so happy with these new changes. While there isn’t much we can do about embarrassing posts from several years ago reappearing on your wall, what we are doing is offering original Project Happiness images that allow you a chance to pretty up your Timeline while also showing your friends that YOU CHOOSE HAPPINESS!
Adding the images to your Timeline is fairly simple. For complete directions and an assortment of Project Happiness images, visit our Facebook page – http://www.facebook.com/projecthappiness
Our Programs
Seven Doors to Happiness – For Everyone
Course One is an online foundations course that takes you on a journey to explore your own path to happiness. Course Two offers adults, parents, grandparents, athletic coaches, retired teachers and therapists training to become Happiness Leaders, and detailed lesson plans to teach the Seven Doors to Happiness. Through after school programs, evening classes and weekend workshops in local schools and community centers, our Leaders will create powerful ripples of change for us all.
Classroom Resources – For Educators
Educators can incorporate helpful and pertinent social and emotional learning (SEL) lessons into day to day instruction, through detailed lesson plans and emotional resilience building activities. Topics include teacher training in anti-bullying techniques and mindfulness for both students and teachers.
Visionary Leadership Initiative – For Students
Not everyone can be student body president, head cheerleader, or captain of the football team, but everyone can make a difference. Students will learn how to make a lasting impression on those around them by developing leadership skills, while competing for prizes, joining in group activities, and making a name for themselves and for their school. Warning: Friendships May Deepen.

Participants’ Voices
“I enjoyed Project Happiness because it allowed me to reflect upon my thoughts and notice how I am built emotionally. It helped me understand myself so that I could become a more positive person.”
“Recently I went through an anger stage, and I just stepped back, took a deep breath, and realized that it wasn’t worth getting upset over the situation. Project Happiness taught me the tools to do that. Thank you for everything!”
“I couldn’t be more happier to realize who I am and what I represent and that I shouldn’t be afraid to be myself or be different than my friends, that being different makes me unique.”
“I just wanted to tell you that this work is honest, and incredibly meaningful and helps people like me believe that there is hope. (Especially during those times when I feel all hope is lost.)”
