Working toward a vision of community well-being
Upcoming Event: March 16 @ 1pm ‘Co-ops 101’
Cook Street Village Activity Centre
Presented by Madelyn Read, Co-op Education Coordinator, BC Co-operative Association
The BC Co-operative Association’s Co-ops 101 Workshop is a great introduction to the co-op model. The facilitated workshop covers all the basics including the history of the co-operative model, the various types of co-op structures, and why co-operation matters in today’s context. The workshop also explains what makes the co-op model unique and how it differs from a company and society’s structures. Come ready to learn, share, and ask questions!

VCHC is a volunteer-run, not-for-profit co-op working to enhance the health and wellness of its Member-Owners and the wider community.
Victoria Community Health Co-operative (VCHC) is a group of individuals who are passionate about well-being for ourselves and our community. We have joined together voluntarily to organize and support wellness programs for members and the wider community to educate and empower individuals, so they may have a greater say in their wellness journey. We bring together wellness practitioner members from many disciplines and members to benefit from their treatments, as well as community healthcare services to support the diverse needs of our community in Greater Victoria, British Columbia.
The Co-op hosts a number of educational events, workshops and social activities for both Co-op Members and the public.
We invite you to explore the calendar and share any event with your friends, family and communities!
