Run Cohousing

As we enjoy all that cohousing has to offer, we are aware that a community is a complex system of many moving parts, each of which thrives best with appropriate attention and maintenance.

Communities all over the country have been designing self-management systems and structures for decades. Learning from each other makes our communities stronger and more efficient.

  • Successful communities revolve around care. While the many elements of care are intersecting and overlapping, we have organized them into four categories.
