Who should apply?

The Ecological Living Project is designed for people, ages 18 and up, who are committed to self-directed learning, personal growth, community building and sustainable living. Participants will be living in a small, close-knit community, under somewhat rustic conditions. Living under these conditions can be challenging for some, so we ask that you reflect on what feels right for you. This is not to deter people from applying, as it is a learning process, but to be up-front about the nature of the program so that the experience is as rich as possible.

Application Deadline – April 1st, 2009

Those interested are asked to complete the application package and submit it by this time. All applications will be reviewed and phone interviews will be scheduled. This is not a typical interview process as we consider this a mutual exploration to see if the fit works both ways.

The following two documents need to be completed and submitted. The Application form is to be sent by email, and for the Policies & Agreement Form we need a hard-copy mailed to us.

Tuition deposit is due by April 15th, 2009, so offers of participation in the program will be confirmed prior to this date.
