Cooperatives comprise a powerful part of the U.S. economy, boasting almost 65,000 establishments and a total membership of over 115 million people.
By connecting member needs to services provided, cooperatives are stable, responsive, locally-based institutions that nurture and develop authentic local leaders and informed and empowered members. Cooperatives contribute to the creation of healthy, sustainable and equitable communities but sometimes national, state, and local policies may hinder their growth and development.
On October 23, 2019, NCBA CLUSA, the Cooperative Development Foundation and local partner the Northwest Cooperative Development Center will host a regional cooperative policy roundtable in Olympia, WA.
