In cities, towns, and regions across the United States, members of cooperatives are organizing new, powerful, cross-sectoral alliances that are radically shifting how cooperatives see one another, work together, and create lasting impacts on their local economies. This session will showcase the emergence of the Austin Cooperative Business Association (ACBA), highlight the importance of housing co-ops in its successful launch, and discuss other cross-sectoral organizing across the United States.
