WHY COHOUSING NOW?

Cohousing is an important housing option for now and for the future:

​

  • Loneliness is on the rise: need for community supports and both shared and personal spaces.

  • 'Working from home' increases the desire and need for more social connections AT home.

  • Housing Crisis motivates alternative housing solutions for all household types and sizes.

  • Climate Crisis motivates shared climate change mitigation.

  • A large cohort of aging adults seek options for Aging in Place.

"You never change things by fighting the existing reality.

To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.”

- Buckminster Fuller

Bucky Fuller envisioned it and Charles Montgomery spells it out.

Ottawa Cohousing n'a pas actuellement la capacité d'offrir ses services complets en français.  Nous espérons être en mesure d'offrir ce service dans l'avenir. 

​

Quoi qu'il en soit, nous invitons les francophones à communiquer avec nous,  car nous avons accès à des personnes ressources francophones pour aider la formation d’une communauté qui fonctionne dans la ou les langues de leur choix.".
