====== Membership ======

Membership in our community is [[:documents:manual#membership_acceptance_policy|open]]–that is, it is based on whether there is first-hand knowledge of why a member might be evicted, not on whether they are liked or popular. In addition to upholding more traditional obligations of an apartment, members are expected to perform several hours of weekly [[:documents:labor|Labor]], participate in our [[:food|food program]] and participate in a number of ways that enrich the cooperative. For more information you can always e-mail [[info@lareunioncoop.org|info@lareunioncoop.org]].
