We help you unlock the power of worker ownership

...at your company

by supporting you to become employee-owned and build a culture of ownership

...in your community

by developing companies owned by workers who face systemic economic insecurity

...for our economy

through policy and narrative-changing initiatives that promote economic democracy

Becoming Employee-owned

Talk with us about whether employee ownership is the right fit for your company. Whether you are a retiring business owner, a values-driven entrepreneur growing your business, or a worker interested in having a stake in your company, we can discuss the options and chart a path forward. For businesses that are already employee-owned, we can support you to build a culture that reflects your values and ownership structure.

Creating Dignified Workplaces

We are committed to supporting you to leverage worker ownership as a tool to address the systemic issues facing your community: worker exploitation, institutional racism, economic insecurity, barriers to employment, and more. While cooperative business development is not the right fit for every fight, owning our own economic institutions can build wealth and power for our communities and lay the foundation for a fundamentally fairer system.

Policy & Field Building

The path toward a political economy in the US that embraces economic democracy requires bold, innovative thinking, deep expertise, a systemic analysis, and a strategic approach. We can work with you to craft and execute on legislative initiatives at the local, state, or federal level; build initiatives to spread the word about worker ownership and economic democracy; and convene stakeholders to move your initiatives forward.
