Sense of community: Membership


Membership is the first element for a sense of community. It is said that we become members of a community when we feel:
- secure (Sri Mahligai is a gated community with security guards, so we should be secured, or do we not?)
- personally invested (not sure how but probably because we need to pay maintenance fees)
- sense of belonging, or, (do we feel belonged?)
- identification in the community (we don't have any badges...but we need car stickers to show where we live)

Next, element INFLUENCE
