Staying Rooted: Community Focused Economic Models, Cooperative Housing, and the New Economy Coalition

12:00pm, 8-31-2017
<< Radio Roulette

Collective housing, cultural co-ops, land trusts, community banks are community-rooted enterprises that empower those that have been excluded from traditional economic institutions. Solidarity economy models exercised throughout the country are becoming viable solutions towards sustainable and economically just living.


Today we're visiting community-rooted enterprises where people are rethinking power and participation in their lives. Collective housing and cultural co-ops, land trusts and community banks are providing fundamental shifts in our workplaces, living spaces, and economic understanding of local communities.


This program was produced with support from the New Economies Reporting Project, funded with a grant from the Park Foundation.
