Co-op Network
An impressive aspect about the women we serve (which is surprising to many) is their incredible resourcefulness and coping mechanisms when it comes to basic survival.
They know how to keep their heads above water.
Through the network of women, the Woman’s Co-op is able to provide members with:
Emergency Services
Related to homelessness, eviction, hunger, personal and household items.
Networking
Members network together and help each other using their God-given talents (sewing to auto mechanics) and personal resources (car, baby-sitting, etc.).
Civic Engagement
Giving a collective voice to impact systems and policies that affect families in poverty. We share “Our View” from our seat in poverty. Watch us Monday evenings at 7pm on Access Channel 16 or check us out on our YouTube channel, find the link on our home page.
Member Needs Fund
A limited financial assistance fund.
