====== About our Labor System ======
 <font 16px/inherit;;inherit;;inherit>**Labor is our way of contributing to the community.**</font>
 <font 16px/inherit;;inherit;;inherit>Part of living in a cooperative community is that we all give back to and maintain the community by completing the labor that needs to be done. Participating in cooperative labor is one of the benefits of living here. Labor will be shared equally and equitably based on the needs of the community and the abilities of the individuals at that time. We start from the assumption that everyone is trying their best to give back to the house with their lab</font>
