Understanding Coops

Empowerment and Community

Living in a co-op is about being part of a community where your voice matters. As a voting member, you contribute to the governance of the coop, ensuring that it remains a place where neighbours support each other and where housing remains affordable on a nonprofit basis. This structure empowers members to elect and be a part of the board of directors, participate in decision-making and on committees, and have a long-term, stable living environment.
