Join us in co-creating cooperative community living opportunities in Berkeley, Oakland, Emeryville, and beyond.
We’re all about advocacy, organizing, education, and connection.
We’re going from the world’s largest intentional communities MeetUp Group to an inclusive, networked force for good.
We’re led by Cohousing Coaches (Betsy Morris & Raines Cohen, left) becoming EcoVillage Ambassadors, partnering with community organizers and advocates locally, regionally, and nationally to help people find and build shared homes and shared neighborhoods that help us all become more resilient.
We’re supported by your memberships and event fees.
We’re part of the Cohousing California network of regional groups.
