Co-op Ed Center Details
Co-op Ed Center is an organization committed to building democratic worker-owned businesses in Chicagoland that contribute to a strong local economy and invest in community development. Its purpose is to train and develop worker cooperatives in communities of color that abide by democratic and social justice values.For far too long, the prevailing economic system has excluded and exploited many individuals based on their education level, legal status, language proficiency, and criminal record, disproportionately impacting Black Indigenous People of Color (BIPOC). These barriers also impact their access to basic resources, such as health, food and quality housing. While these barriers have impacted BIPOC communities for generations, they were further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.The worker cooperative model has been proven to create quality jobs, wealth, ownership, and investment in community development. However, for worker cooperatives to develop and flourish, organizational capacity and support must be established. It is with that intent that the Co-op Ed Center was formed in 2018.
