These kind of events organized by USFWC are a great place to ask more details about how to get started building a worker co-operative https://info.usworker.coop/civicrm/event/info?reset=1&id=672
my co-owning worker-colleague @Tensegrities at the @usfwc conference in September, chatting with @GEO_Collective’s Chris Preciado:

:TwinPines: Pretty happy with how our USFWC 20th Anniversary issue is shaping up.

Good statement from #USFWC officials: http://unioncoops.org/
"If the worker cooperative community is used as a tool to leverage against traditional collective bargaining strategies, it hurts both the labor movement and worker co-ops. The worker co-op movement is not and must not be antagonistic to labor unions."
I wish it had stressed democracy and workers power -- an important potential source of solidarity between unions and co-ops.
Really inspiring to see how much @USFWC has grown during the Annual Meeting. Great for worker co-op, great for our communities, and a hope for the future of the US! #coopmonth #usfwc #workercoops
What's the story behind the growth of #WorkerCoops? Media, activism, and government support are a few factors named by #USFWC E.D. #EstebanKelly: https://nonprofitquarterly.org/2018/08/09/key-trends-behind-the-growth-of-worker-co-ops/

@Matt_Noyes @tbeckett don't know exact, though I think #usfwc is doing a census. I would count some LLCs that meet irs standard, but not npos.
Unexpectedly got to hang out with Mo Manklang of #USFWC and #PACA today in #Burlington! Had a good chat over lunch about #workercoop organizing and how it can better interface with the burgeoning #platformcoop movement. Hoping I can get her on #socialcoop soon! #btv https://social.coop/media/5-3UuPklk3ccSemhCZU
