SUMMARY:Reimagining Your Senior Years in Community
DESCRIPTION:Reimagining Your Senior Years in Community \nWednesday\, August 9\, 2023  \n\nPacific: 8:00-10:00am\nMountain: 9:00-11:00am\nCentral: 10:00am-12:00pm\nEastern: 11:00am-1:00pm\n\n\nREGISTER NOW\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\nJoin longtime communitarian Laird Schaub to envision a new future for yourself as you reimagine your senior years in community. \n\nAbout the event\n \nIf you could write the story of your life\, what kind of story would it tell? One with choice\, community\, socializing\, sprinkled with fun? Or would it tell the story of someone who felt they didn’t have any choices\, lacked community\, and felt isolated? You have the power to enhance your life and your journey starts right here. \n \nIntentional communities are well-positioned to create micro-cultures that address what is lacking in the wider culture. Your position as a senior demands respect\, and living in community gives you the opportunity to have a voice and create a more well-balanced ecosystem. When it comes to seeing the positive aspects of Elderhood\, Intentional Community offers a unique opportunity to have your needs met while allowing you the freedom to live your life as you choose. How do you envision your future as you age in community? What are the ways you want to be supported? \n \nIn the Reimagining Your Senior Years in Community workshop\, we’ll take a closer look at the ways in which living in community can be an opportunity to thrive in your third phase of life\, not just survive. We’ll discover just how many types of communities are out there that can suit your specific needs and desires.  \n \nIn this workshop\, you’ll:\n\nlearn how to embrace elderhood\ndiscover how intentional community can support a great life for seniors\nexamine options for seniors in community living as well as the cost to join a community\nexplore the differences between intergenerational and senior communities \n\n\nAbout your presenter\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLaird Schaub\n \nLaird’s specialty is up-tempo inclusive meetings that engage the full range of human input\, teaching groups to work creatively with conflict and diversity—all the while being ruthless about capturing as much product as possible. He lived for four decades at Sandhill Farm\, an income-sharing rural community that he helped found.Laird also helped found the Foundation for Intentional Community\, where he served as the main administrator for 28 years. In 1987\, he created a self-insurance fund for healthcare among income-sharing communities called PEACH (Preservation of Equity Accessible for Community Health) that he ran for 22 years.In addition to his expertise in community living\, he’s parlayed his passion for good process into a consulting business focused on cooperative group dynamics\, styled CANBRIDGE (Consensus And Network Building for Resolving Impasse and Developing Group Effectiveness)\, since 1987. \n \nRead his blog Laird’s Commentary on Community and Consensus. \n \n\n\n\nLocation\n \nYou’ll get the Zoom link after you register in your confirmation email.
