Racheli, how did your group work together to build the community? Were you highly involved in the process? Did people attend a lot of meetings before move-in to make decisions about the community, or was it comprised mostly of people who moved in from a long distance away? What was the percentage of people who were involved in the building process who actually moved in? I'm just curious as to how you could go through the arduous process of building the community without not having already run into the power-struggle issue and come to grips with it. --Diane(:^] Jamaica Plain Cohousing, Boston Massachusetts = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = >My community (Sonora Cohousing) is going through a really >difficult phase right now.
