Welcome
The United States Federation of Worker Cooperatives is a national grassroots membership organization of and for worker cooperatives, democratic workplaces, and organizations that support the growth and development of worker cooperatives. We were founded in 2004, the result of several years of organizing on the part of worker cooperatives and regional groups from around the country.
We provide support to our members and educational outreach to the public through conferences and events, resource referrals, and networking and training opportunities. Check out the various sections of our site to connect to resources and see what's happening in the dynamic and growing world of worker cooperatives!
