Do You Have a Dream of Living in Community?

 

We are looking for like-minded people to join us in creating an urban

community in Santa Cruz.

 

Our Vision:

 

It is our intention to work with others to create a community where

we live and play together, a welcoming and joyful place, where we

connect with others in respectful ways and support each other in

healing, growing, learning and transformation. We value service,

diversity, sharing, interdependence, honesty, integrity, creativity,

unconditional love and respect for the planet and all life. We honest

communications, active listening, keeping current, compassion, play,

living our values and bringing a high level of consciousness to our

actions. The community allows for connection and the feeling of

oneness with others and also respects individual needs for privacy.

Our community serves as a model of new ways of living and relating

with others sustainably, and is part of a greater social change

movement. Our guiding principle is that all members of the community

have equal power and that we create decision making strategies that

reflect this principle.

 

Location and Community Criteria:

 

The following non-negotiable criteria are an outgrowth of our values,

included in the vision statement above. It is our intention to find

people who are closely aligned with us in terms of shared values.

Many more decisions need to be made collectively, however we have

created the following criteria in order to attract others who would

opt for the same kind of community we desire.
