Networking Opportunities
Because co-ops are controlled by their members on a democratic basis, they are presented with unique opportunities and challenges.

Legislative Action and Protection
Our members benefit not only from our extensive network of legislative contacts, but our lobbyists, who monitor legislative and regulatory activities to protect cooperative interests. Members also value our willingness to initiate legal and regulatory changes that allow cooperatives to operate more effectively.
News Updates

You’ll receive the Co-op-A-Gram, our newsletter that’s mailed and emailed quarterly to member co-ops and their directors; a weekly Legislative Update that tracks the progress of important bills; and special news bulletins to update you on timely topics.
