Board of Directors

“Living in a cohousing community is a hedge against loneliness, which is as deadly as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.”

“Senior Cohousing is like dorm living but for adult boomers who have always appreciated the camaraderie of friends sharing, laughing, communicating and crying together.”

Ty Albright – Treasurer

Cohousing is “A small community of homes where everyone agrees to be a good neighbor.”

Mary Kraus – Secretary

Megan Shea – Secretary

“Cohousing is the best way I know to build an interconnected, collaborative life. It provides a built-in community to share life’s big and small moments, while also enjoying the delight of a front door that you can close when it’s time for privacy.”

Jim Leach

“Cohousing is a type of neighborhood living based on community,
connection, and the commitment to make a better world.”

Lew Bowers

“Cohousing is a lifestyle emphasizing cooperation and community whereby an intentional neighborhood or community is created with each household having their own home and sharing common space and activities with the community.”

Liz Ryan Cole

Cohousing is a “Small village living for people who value both connection and independence.”
