Happy Interdependence DMV area Community Wealth-building Colleagues!
 
Ever since last year I meant to share with you that there is something called Healthcare Sharing:  affordable health insurance options for self-employed individuals, solo-entrepreneurs, folks in the gig economy, and (likely) folks in worker's co-ops. See Sharman Y. Monroe's post on Alignable: 
 
 
[Note: I have not tried the coverage she offers, as I have health insurance through my spouse's plan.]
 
Keep tabs on your stress levels, friends!

ARC works with communities and local governments using the powerful tool of community visioning. ARC also works with local small businesses, cooperatives, and social enterprises to promote sustainable circular regional economic development, helping them obtain the goods and services they need to run their businesses from within the Washington Metro region.

“Civilization is to groups what intelligence is to individuals. it is a means of combining the intelligence of many to achieve ongoing group adaptation.” -- Octavia Butler

"No magic bullet, not even the Internet, can save us from population explosion, deforestation, climate disruption, poison by pollution, and wholesale extinction of plant and animal species. We're going to have to want different things, seek different pleasures, pursue different goals than those that have been driving us and our world economy." -- Joanna Macy

Note: Jim's e-mail policy correlates with this perspective: "It is normal for me to take 2 days to read my emails and 2 more days to reflect on the matter and respond calmly. The culture of immediacy and the constant fragmentation of time are not very compatible with the kind of life I lead." -- Lucy Hunt, Researcher
