What should I pay?
If you have higher access to wealth, go high: Elect to “Pay It Forward” if you can afford to work less than full-time, if you own your home, can easily meet your basic needs and can save/invest finances beyond your needs.
If you’re financially stable, take the middle path: Pick the “Standard Rate”, which reflects the value of the course, the time invested by trainers and facilitators, and the expected impact on you of circle work in the years that follow.
If you have lower access to wealth, stay low: Choose the “Financial Hardship Rate” if you’re supporting dependents, have difficulty covering basic needs, have uncovered medical expenses, are an elder or unpaid community organizer with a basic income. (This is also the refresher rate for those who have taken Intro to Council before.)
