The final meeting was a time for participants to reflect upon where to go next and evaluate the experience. Participants were encouraged to share future plans for engendering and maintaining their hope, as well as plans for the use of the hope mantel and hope journal, tape, or drawing on their continuing hope journey. A networking system through sharing participant’s phone numbers and e-mail addresses, the development of a hope list serve, and an Internet chat room with set dates and time was created for participants to use when they no longer met as a group.
