2009 National Cohousing Conference

Frequent and regular readers know about my interest in the cohousing movement so I am thrilled to be able to pass this information on to everyone in the rain.

Friday, June 26, 2009 - Sunday, June 28, 2009
The 2009 Conference is the first-ever annual conference. There will be a wide range of programs to satisfy  Cohousing neophytes as well as old-timers, professionals and planning officials. There is lenty fo current cohousing residents too. In addition to high quality educational programming, there will be many social networking opportunities - both formal and informal.

The conference will offer both day-long and two-day workshops. Workshops will range from Free, Introductory Presentations for those new to Cohousing to in-depth offerings for Forming Groups, Established Communities, and Cohousing Professionals according to the conference materials. There will also be tours to existing cohousing communites. With 13 built Cohousing Communities, Washington state has the second largest number of Cohousing Communities in the United States - and all 13 are in Puget Sound, making Seattle a wonderful place for you to visit examples of different Cohousing Communities.
