Cooperative Entrepreneurship Training

Are you thinking of starting a business?  Curious about how to accomplish this goal with a team instead of going it alone?  Our two-day Cooperative Entrepreneurship Workshop will cover the nuts and bolts of launching a new business, and will include special considerations for worker-owned cooperative businesses.  Our priority in this program is to benefit those who have been directly or indirectly negatively affected by the criminal justice system.  People with a history of involvement are encouraged to register and attend.
