Santa Rosa Creek Commons
Santa Rosa Creek is a 27-unit cooperative that takes its name from the largest city in Sonoma County, California, and the creek that forms its northern border. As a community, they share their talents and work together to manage two acres, five buildings, and numerous gardens. They are a multi-generational cooperative, and they welcome a diversity of spiritual beliefs, backgrounds, abilities, and sexual preferences
Love & Cherry
Love & Cherry is a community fresh in the making. Their goal is a self sustainable group of people who share same the same life values (non hurting and affection exchange, as the main values and maybe only ones that matter). The emphasis is on healing of past rejections, traumas and all the baggage that “cultured” life brings. Touch and intimacy are very important in the community in order to heal and connect with one another.
The Second Life Project
The Second Life Project is a San Francisco-based community built by and for the formerly incarcerated community. They build intentional self-determined communities with formerly incarcerated individuals returning from life sentences in prison. These homes are not externally managed by an outside agency, but are run by the people who inhabit them. These communities ensure that they return to a community that solves for affordable housing, reintegration from a segregated and stigmatized world, and community of belonging.

The presenters were excellent. It was great to see the different settings and to hear the various questions related to these three living situations. Thank you so much for this presentation.”
