Our Membership

We define community as a group of people who share mutual concern for one another's welfare. 

Each member works to support impactful formal or informal community formation.

We are innovators actively working to forge stronger community beyond failing practices.


Members seek one another because:

  • We value communities for advancing health, safety and personal growth.

  • We value the strength that grows from relationships between diverse people.

  • We honor the time tested principles that connect people over millennia.

  • We value leaders who subdue ego and act generously.


Members are committed to:

  • Inspire and facilitate authentic connection in a desperately lonely era.

  • Enrich lives, families and humanity by bringing people together.

  • Learn, create and teach relevant ways to evolve community leadership.

  • Grow themselves and support the growth of others to ultimately generously connect the world. 


The Boundary:

The Deans Project is for those who have done their study and practice nurturing authentic human connection in contrast to those primarily seeking to extract a membership for revenue, labor, or otherwise.
