About this Event
The cost of living is no longer just a financial question—it’s a human one.
Across cities and communities, people are navigating rising housing costs, food prices, healthcare expenses, and the quiet trade-offs that come with trying to build a stable life. For many, survival takes precedence. Comfort feels conditional. Dreams get postponed.
This COMMUNION gathering creates space to talk honestly about what it takes to afford:
- Survival — meeting basic needs and staying afloat
- Comfort — safety, stability, rest, and a sense of ease
- Dreams — imagination, creativity, growth, and long-term vision
This Gathering’s Focus: Affordability
Together, we’ll explore questions such as:
- What does “making it” mean in today’s economy?
- What does comfort look like and who has access to it?
- What compromises are required just to maintain stability?
- How do financial realities shape our ability to dream?
- What gets sacrificed when survival becomes the priority?
- What would it take to feel truly supported, not just sustained?
