"The Austin Time Exchange Network (ATEN), a grassroots, community program, enables individuals to exchange services with one another by sharing skills within a network of people in Greater Austin. It is a local exchange system designed to validate and reward the work of respecting equality and rebuilding community while providing an alternative means for its members to meet their needs. The goal of ATEN is to serve as a bridge between people from different economic, social, and ethnic backgrounds by providing the opportunity for interaction through the exchanging of services. All of this aims to encourage systemic social change, economic equality, and community empowerment in Austin."
