Conflict

Conflict is bound to happen in any community, and really good things can come out of conflict. The trick is to learn how to reduce conflict to only those situations where it is useful and to work with it productively.

We’ve bear-ly started building this page of our website. Thank you for your patience as we continue to expand the resources available here.

If you are familiar with cohousing and would like to contribute text or photos to this page, we welcome your submissions. Note that all website content is reviewed and the primary content on each page is curated. Please Contact Us for more information.

Karen Gimnig: Embracing Conflict

Conflict is part of community life. When we embrace conflict as an opportunity for growth and learn the skills to engage productively, conflict can result in more connection and stronger relationships.
