TRAINING INSTITUTE ONLINE:

Introduction to Limited Equity Cooperatives

Course starts Thursday, July 22, 2021

Learn more about the co-op model and the cooperative movement in this participatory course. Affordable housing cooperatives play a critical role in homeownership opportunities especially in dense urban areas where single-family homes are out of reach for low- and moderate-income people. Housing cooperatives can not only provide lasting affordability, but also create community among members, encourage resource sharing and significantly reduce the carbon footprint of its residents. With strategic initial financial assistance, corporate formation and ongoing support, they are an invaluable national housing resource.

Where we live matters.

We bring together an extensive network of partners and member practitioners from local communities who have a deep understanding of best practices in community land trusts, shared equity housing, local housing policies such as inclusionary zoning, and more.

At Grounded Solutions Network, we know what policies and strategies work to build and preserve housing opportunities, and we help communities use them.
