Introduction

I chose community development as my life's work in my 20's. The Meetup lets me share, learn, and create ways to help people connect and make their dreams real.

How did you hear about East Bay Cohousing?

Raines Cohen in 1999.

What does Cohousing mean to you?

Friendly neighbors, a great place to live with more space than I could afford on my own. Opportunities to share -- launchpads for sustainable living.

What's most likely: Rent, Buy, Share, Build, Co-create?

I currently live in Berkeley Cohousing.

Where are you most interested in living?

with diverse neighbors rejoicing in one another's creative passions and livelihood.

Additional Information

"Planning for Sustainable Communities is my business - we help people find, organize, grow, and sustain cohousing neighborhoods."

What Betsy Morris is saying about this Meetup Group

We're trying to be a hub for community connections, a networking forum for shared living resources of all sorts: cohousing, co-ops, EcoVillages, group houses -- you name it. We bring in guest speakers, do slide shows and movie nights, and highlight openings in existing communities, but the #1 thing people are most looking for is other people on the same journey, to learn from each other and go down the path together. Come, learn, explore, and get the support you need.

You must be signed in to post a Greeting.
