Cottage Med/Caring in Community

In times of rapid change and broken human relationships we want to slow down, stand up, and hold on to traditional wisdoms while embracing change in an increasing complex world needing peace.

We build community through theory and praxis.  For over a decade our democratic cooperative Caring in Community (501c3) has been a crucible testing idealistic theories for social change in the necessary flames of real life.

Our community actions build on neighborly love and compassion.  Our scientific enquiries live on creativitycuriosity, and open-mindedness.  We trust spontaneity and synchronicity to carry ripples of change as far through society as Lorenz's butterfly effect may allow.

As a nonprofit group we borrow the adage that money is like air - everyone breathes to live but there is more to life than breathing - the profit we speak of is ephemeral as air, hard to grasp, gone tomorrow.

For these reasons we are committed to enduring nonprofit values.  Healthy family and healing community are not for profit.  In this way we hope to keep the dream alive.

We began with free house calls to patients in need.  Out of this grew Cottage_Med, our biggest - and now worldwide - community project with over 12,000 downloads today.  Your donations help peace grow.

Dream high and wide - we need so many dreamers in this all too material world.
