JABA: Overarching Concepts Applied

On October 19, 2007, the organization hosted a one-day conference called Crafting Intentional Communities: Cooperating Living Along Life’s Journey. The event was designed to explore new housing and living innovations for seniors to live, grow and age in community.

The first panel discussion of the day explored how many of the concepts discussed in early sessions can be applied. How are these kinds of communities created? How can we learn from the experiences of others? How do different types of intentional communities function?

The panel is moderated by Dene Peterson of the ElderSpirit Community and panelists include: Marione Cobb of Twin Oaks; Monica Abbleby of the ElderSpirit Extension Project; Zev Paiss, co-founder of the Elder Cohousing Network; Marty Klaif of Shannon Farm; and Carolyn Ohle, Director of Innisfree Village.

This is the fourth in a series of podcasts. Check the JABA category for the rest of the events. Also check out the conference’s website to learn more about the participants.
