@usworker.coopLet's go Valley Alliance of #WorkerCoops! Thank you for making the conference so special and accessible for local worker-owners! #WCC26 @vawc.bsky.social
@usworker.coopThank you to everyone who attended the 2026 Worker Co-op Conference in Boston or hosted a local worker co-op satellite event!
We're extending so much gratitude to the Boston host committee, our Board members and our sponsors who made this event possible #WCC26 #BostonCoops ❤️🔥
@usworker.coop"One of the successes of our co-op is having multiple voices - even someone with more experience can have an idea that isn't relevant to our audience. We always have to be open to new ideas, from workers and worker-owners alike." 👏🏼👏🏼 #WorkerCoops #WCC26
@usworker.coopSome advice from this juicy session for hospitality co-ops w/ BOYFRIEND co-op in NYC: staff on the higher end, do the best projections you can do by year and season knowing things will change and get important legal and tax experts that understand co-ops in your corner! www.boyfriend.coop
@usworker.coop#WCC26 Panelists speak to home ownership and housing cooperatives, closing the racial wealth gap through worker ownership and the legal and financial resources available for cooperators in New England and across the country.
@usworker.coopStarting #WCC26 Day 2 strong with a "How to Unionize your Worker Co-op" session! @compdotco-op.bsky.social @steelworkers.bsky.social
Learn more about why & how to unionize your co-op at usworker.coop/unions
@usworker.coop"We have an ecosystem of seven cooperatives (in Boston) - this is not just about creating business as usual, but business that changes the capitalist system. We need an alternative." #WorkerCooperatives #WCC26 👏🏼👏🏼
