The L.A. Co-op Lab is a collective that builds capacity for worker ownership in Los Angeles by providing trainings, technical assistance, and financing to people who are trying to start or convert existing businesses to worker-owned businesses.
We host a variety of workshops and events where aspiring worker-owners can learn how to start and sustain a cooperative business, together. We are also members of a national peer network of co-op developers as well as a financial cooperative that is committed to building more distributed ownership and democracy in local economies.
Our aim is to advance worker-ownership as one way to push back against inequality, gentrification, and the gig economy by helping people who are often excluded from good jobs to collectively create their own and meet community needs.
