Our themes for the 2025 Communities Conference

Since our post-pandemic reboot, each year’s TOCC has spotlighted two themes, with one theme focusing on diversity & equity and the other changes each year. So every workshop slot will offer content on these themes, along with workshops focused on general intentional community topics. 

Our themes for 2025 are “Resistance and Resilience: Confronting Challenges, Cultivating Possibilities”, and “Transforming Community Culture to support BIPOC and PGM Representation, Empowerment, and Long-Term Retention.” Check our 2025 Event Theme post for more details.
