Cohousing-L Mailing List: Tuesday, 9/8: Catalysts Not Bubbles: How Intentional Communities Enrich Society

[Carolyn Pruitt (carolyn]

Happy Friday everyone!

The National Cohousing Alliance will be back after the long weekend with
our next virtual event about how cohousing communities can help make a
positive difference in their towns, cities, and more.

Cohousing and other intentional communities exist because people are safer,
healthier, and more resilient when they are connected. The values and
strengths that we prioritize within our communities are needed beyond them
too. Luckily, intentional communities can make a big impact on their
surrounding neighborhoods, towns, and beyond.

Grounded in field research spanning 54 communal housing models across the
United States and Australia, Savannah Fishel has investigated how
intentional communities can serve as vital social infrastructure tackling
some of our entrenched societal problems, across ill health, polarization,
housing and climate change.

She’ll be sharing her research with us in a one hour workshop next Tuesday,
9/8 at 10am PT // 11am MT.

Can’t make the time? Feel free to register anyway! We’ll be recording the
event and will pass along the recording to all RSVPs.

As always, you can reach us at info [at] cohousingalliance.org with any
questions.

Best,
