-- Dorothy Callison, G.I. Rights Hotline volunteer

"Seldom have I observed a group facilitator with the rare talent that Ms. Weaver so obviously possesses. Meticulous in every way, she is well organized yet capable of flexibility, respectful of individuals in the group yet focused on the needs of the group as a whole. She is incredibly conscientious and focused, and still able to communicate humor, enabling even the most hesitant members to relax and speak their truth. Ms. Weaver is a strong, sensitive and well-trained group leader."

-- Dorothy M. Giller, MA, Santa Rosa Creek Commons

"To watch skilled facilitating is a real treat - The respect with which people were heard and treated was heart warming."

-- Hetty Herman-Minsk, Santa Rosa Creek Commons

"Thanks so much for all your efforts to help us as we walk off the plank...your enthusiasm and ability to help us all get a sense of each other and the process we will encounter in next 2 years was amazing....I personally learned a lot and hope to try out some of the techniques in my own community."

-- Karen Hester, cohousing consultant

"Eris helped us plan and also led our first group meeting -- a group process/group formation workshop -- pointing skillfully to the road and helping us set off on our cohousing journey. I can't imagine beginning a group without someone like her. And I can't believe the workshop was only seven weeks ago!"

-- Joan Lichterman, North Oakland Cohousing

"Eris is excellent -- she is strong, funny, smart, and not afraid to call people on their bullshit, if needed. She is intrepid. I don't think that conflict bothers her much, if at all."

-- Sally Wright, Pleasant Hill Cohousing
