Many communities today are facing challenges such as limited economic opportunities, rising costs, and the loss of local ownership. Cooperatives offer a practical way for people to work together, meet shared needs, create opportunities, and build wealth that stays within their communities.

Under this year’s theme, “Staging Sustainable Futures,” participants will come together for workshops, shared learning, networking, and conversations focused on building strong, sustainable cooperative economies.

Target Audience: Cooperative members and prospects. 

Workshop topics will include cooperative development, capitalization and fundraising, record-keeping, taxation, marketing, supply-chain management, leadership, and more. Cooperative members are encouraged to attend.

Members, please check your membership by visiting this link to access member scholarships and/or contact your local office listed below.

Space is limited, so register today and join us for this important gathering!
