1. Advertise through fliers, local newsletters, local papers.  If you 
target the "progressive" sorts of places and media you may get a better 
response.  For example we have food coops down here which are a good 
target for fliers.

2. Hold orientation meetings at a church, library or other local 
meeting space where you identify what cohousing is, why you are doing 
it, and what advantages it holds.

3. Contact other groups in your province/ country and let them know to 
refer people to you.
