about

We're Common Good Collective

We are the group that is illuminating an alternative to the modern world, that is designed to disconnect us economically and personally from our community, from others, and our faith.  We believe change agents, social innovators, business leaders, faith leaders, and community activists confront key challenges in their efforts to introduce system change. Often working alone, they frequently experience doubt and confusion in the face of resistance, and surprise when their hard-won beliefs about change no longer work in practice. Common Good Collective provides change leaders with the space to work with one another to design, implement, and sustain systemic and spiritual transformation.

Eliminating Economic Isolation

Understanding we’ve been here before, and while forces of empire and freedom change, there is much we can learn from. Economy is more than money.

Significance of Place

It is in specific places that we form an identity, become part of community, and make our contribution to the world.

Structure of Belonging

A sense of belonging is a basic human desire. Belonging is being valued, needed, accepted, and knowing that you’re not alone.

Convene with the people, partners, and guides that bring together the means to design, implement, and sustain systemic and spirit transformation.

Have Questions?

The shift is to a narrative of emancipatory abundance. We work at the level of practice, but both narratives are tacit in the practice, and the narratives have to be smoked out or you can't get a paradigm shift.
