Your first 30 days.
What membership actually looks like, week by week, for each role — what you do, what it costs, and what you get. No metaphor, no mystery. Pick the row that's you.
Take the two-minute assessment — a conversation, not a form. It shows you which dollars your family already qualifies for. If it fits, a physician-reviewed Letter of Medical Necessity ($49) documents HSA/FSA eligibility when the care qualifies.
Name your circle — the people already helping. Their hours start counting on the family ledger: the invisible work becomes visible.
If you need hands, the co-op matches you with a verified caregiver — $35/hr all-in, and every visit is verified three ways: who was there, that it happened, and that it helped.
Start a table — coffee with two or three people on your block. That is the smallest first step, and it's how every circle begins.
Give an hour through the time bank. One hour given = one hour banked — at par, giftable, never cashable. Mutual aid, not money.
Double-confirm your first visits — both sides attest the hour happened. That is the anti-fraud spine that makes banked hours trustworthy.
Want it to be your work? Become a paid Care Neighbor — $26/hr W-2 plus equity and a vote (see how).
Talk to us. Bring your credentials — the co-op's employer agent runs payroll, workers' comp, and background checks. You never carry the compliance alone.
First matches: a bench of families you keep — not a rotation of strangers. Families rate and keep the caregivers they trust.
Your first verified visits: you attest, the family attests, and the benefit gets scored. Your work becomes proof — the record no agency ever gave you.
Patronage equity starts accruing. You are not staff — you are an owner, one member, one vote (read the rule).
Review AI-drafted LMNs in the $49 flow — the AI drafts, you sign. The maker–checker loop, with you as the checker.
Attest the benefit layer (Omaha-scored) behind the entity firewall. And a promise: roles, never names — we do not put your name on this site.
Start at /builders. Students earn patient-care hours on real work (how that works).
The commons is open — playbook, templates, governance Rule. The ledger is yours to build on.
