Hearthaven

('87, MO) 5 Members

A close-knit cooperatively owned household located in a poor neighborhood in Kansas City's midtown district. The four founding members had been together in a non-residential ecumenical faith community for nearly 20 years before they pooled their resources to buy this house, with the intent to share their lives in a way that models living from the heart--an approach that is responsible, nonviolent, and ecological. Most of the members, originally professionals, have restructured their careers to reflect that vision, becoming community organizers/activists, a writer, a community gardens organizer/educator, and an energy healer. Although their individual interests and involvements are diverse, they share an interest in environmental and social activism, Earth spirituality, community building, non-exclusive relationships, and good communication. They also put a high value on offering hospitality to a wide network of friends, activists, and seekers, and of living life out of love rather than fear.
