Intro to Intentional Communities around the Globe
Are you looking to learn about intentional communities and get inspiration for your own future community? You’ve come to the right place!

Get your questions answered and leave with practical tips. This is also a great opportunity to meet fellow community seekers from around the global.
Cynthia is the Co-Director of the FIC and will offer a virtual tour of some of the hundreds of community projects she has visited or worked with worldwide.

“This is a wonderful workshop to give you an overview of finding intentional community. Cynthia breaks down all the concepts and inspires you find the community you’re looking for through resources and insightful advice from her own experience.”
—Molly McKinney
“Cynthia proved to be an excellent ally in assisting me in my search for ecovillages and communities. She was super-knowledgeable, thorough, kind, thoughtful, and an excellent listener. She recommended several sites that I had not heard of, many of the which she had visited personally. I felt very inspired and hopeful after our session — her enthusiasm for the regenerative movement is very infectious and genuine, which combined with her experience and commitment made her a great helper for finding the best next steps forward for myself.”
—Adam Morrison
“Cynthia has a wealth of information about IC’s around the world, and presented in a way that felt welcoming and inclusive. The breakout group helped me get a sense of the diversity of the backgrounds of people interested in intentional community.”
—Allison S.
