Scenario

When couples feel overextended in the communities they moved to support

My partner and I moved to this small town specifically to be part of the local food co-op and sustainable community but after two years we've realized we're doing way more work than most members and starting to resent it. We came here with such hope and now we're questioning whether we're being taken advantage of or if this is just what real community looks like.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are discovering the gap between their ideals about community and the unequal reality of who actually does the work.
