Welcome To Our
Membership Interest Form

Our membership application is the first step in expressing interest in our various types of membership. Information you provide on this form is considered confidential. Share as much or as little as you'd like. The most important thing is that your answers be truthful, rather than typing in what you think others might want to hear. Applications found to be untruthful cannot be processed.

Founding Membership requires that every adult, who will reside within the same household, apply individually. Teens within that household (ages 13 & up) will also be asked to apply, during the last step of our interview process. We do this to ensure residential life in our 'village' is something they, too, truly want. 'Village' residents become eligible to vote on community matters at the age of 14.

FORGOT TO ADD SOMETHING? NEED TO MAKE A CORRECTION?

Updates can be made to your application by sending us a message from any page on this website. Simply make "Re: Application" your subject heading. Then ensure your name & email address, listed at the top, both match the original form. Advise us of the changes you would like to make, in the message box. Once sent, that information will be routed to the member of our leadership team who received your application.
