About Consulting at the USFWC

The USFWC’s Consulting program supports values-aligned organizations and businesses undergoing transitions and growth in their workplace policies, structures, programming, and culture to integrate cooperation, workplace democracy, and anti-oppressive values.

USFWC members are innovating every day with exciting and radical approaches to managing their workplaces. The Consulting team draws from the collective expertise of our member organizations and their working-class leaders of color to share our field’s best tools, lessons, and practices with the wider community of nonprofits, businesses, and grassroots organizations.

Our approach draws heavily from popular education and abolitionist and feminist philosophies to catalyze action, justice, and equity. Our team brings diverse experiences as artists, educators, cooperative owners, and organizers for racial, migrant, climate, and economic justice. Our work with clients and members is relational, caring, and strategic to tailor particular approaches to their needs.
