Welcome to the Intentional Communities website – your source for community information
Intentional Community is an inclusive term for ecovillages, cohousing communities, residential land trusts, communes, student co-ops, urban housing cooperatives, intentional living, alternative communities, cooperative living, and other projects where people strive together with a common vision.
This web site serves the growing communities' movement, providing resources for starting a community, finding a community home, living in community, and creating more community in your life.

Being hosted once again at the beautiful Westminster Woods Retreat Camp in Occidental, CA, Art of Community is a unique conference opportunity for people and organizations to share skills and knowledge about creating and living in intentional community, and to educate and network around the values and practices of living in cooperative culture. Connect directly through interactive workshops, presentations, and activities and learn about concepts of living "in community".
Featured speaker this year is Mark Lakeman of Portland's City Repair Project: cityrepair.org. Mark will share his wisdom and stories about how City Repair strengthens a sense of community via projects which create more personal connections to "place".
