Learn about the Co-op Principles and the Co-op Difference through this interactive lesson plan!
About Us
We’ve been around for decades helping co-ops in the Pacific Northwest. This short video offers a summary of our work.
Co-opatopia!
Celebrate Co-ops! Each Spring Co-op in the NW gather in Olympia to promote the co-op model and celebrate our successes!
Home Care Co-ops
As the nation continues to age, in-home caregiving continues to be one of the fastest-growing service sectors. Co-ops offer caregivers control over their working conditions, better wages, and even benefits.
ROC Northwest
We help negotiate the conversions of manufactured home parks into resident-owned communities by bringing willing sellers and residents together.
Event Calendar
Co-op Conferences, Meet-ups, and other special events in the Pacific Northwest concerning the social economy. If you have an event that you would like to list, please drop us a line.

Olympia Conversion Academy
In partnership with the City of Olympia, NWCDC will be conducting a special academy to help businesses in Olympia convert to either worker, consumer, or multi-stakeholder cooperatives. We are currently looking for up to 5 Olympia business owners interested in selling to their employees or customers. Click to learn more about this special event!
