Hi, I’m Mary Regan.
I’m excited to become a member of the Intertwinkles
team!
I have been a community organizer all of my adult life and a
member of cooperative houses for a large part of my life, as well. What unites
these aspects of my life is the strong belief that we humans are communal
people whose lives are improved when we work and live together, sharing ideas, responsibilities,
strategies, food, and resources.
Intertwinkles is working to develop online tools to help
coop houses and activist groups communicate and democratically make decisions
together, overcoming obstacles often imposed by our mobile lives and power
imbalances. I am especially enthused
that these tools could help strengthen the coop house movement and possibly enable
the development of new coop houses.
If you live in a coop, we’d love to show you our tools, let
you try them out, and get your feedback to make them better suited to your
needs! I’m interviewing coop housemates about their current decision making
processes and scheduling workshops at several coops in the Boston area.
Please feel free to contact me at mary@intertwinkles.org to bring Intertwinkles
to your coop house!
