A successful housing cooperative needs the support and participation of a community of people, but it takes individual effort to organize that support and participation. In this workshop, we'll explore community organizing strategies
to get new co-ops up and running and the skills you need to effectively deploy these strategies. We'll focus on building a shared vision, a committed team, and a network of support. This workshop is designed for people currently or planning to be involved in starting a new co-op.

Thank you to Shared Capital Cooperative, the Course Track Sponsor for our Creating a Co-op track!
