That’s why New Yorkers have formed over 2000 organizations to adopt a better model, where the people who live, work, grow, and learn within an organization share equally in its management and benefits. Whether we focus on housing, banking, food, workplaces, or schools, together we form a solidarity economy.
Find the resources you need to transform the way our city does business.
“Sharing ought to be an option alongside the more exclusive or individual ownership that capitalism requires.

– Samira Rajan, CEO and President of Brooklyn Cooperative Federal Credit Union
