The Oakland Morehouse presents 

Introduction to Pleasurable Group Living 

Taught by Marilyn Moohr, Alec Van Sinderen, Jack and Ilana Firestone, and Sugar 
Goens Baranco 



Maybe you have been thinking about the idea of putting together an intentional 
group living or communal situation in a single house or on land with multiple 
dwellings. Great concept, but does it ever really work? The idea may even seem 
daunting in terms of decision-making and people getting along. If so, you may 
find the information in Introduction to Pleasurable Group Living by Lafayette 
Morehouse interesting and useful. 



Drawing on their 40-year experience of successfully living as a group in one of 
the oldest intentional communities in the nation, members of the Lafayette 
Morehouse community may address such topics as 



· How to ensure fair treatment of everyone in the group, 

· Create affordable housing, 

· Provide better child and elder care, 

· Reduce expenses 

· Create more security. 

Got Questions??? 



Bring ‘em. This will be a highly interactive evening. The more questions, the 
more fascinating and fun it will be.
