We are incorporated as a non-profit worker co-op and our legal name is "The One-Stop Pop-ed Shop Worker Co-op". We are proud to support workplace democracy through worker co-ops! Our Values *Recognizing the uneven distribution of political, economic and social power in every aspect of our lives, we aim to provide a forum for critical thinking and collective learning. *We believe in supporting research by those who do not traditionally have access to research monies and infrastructure. *We believe in creating a space where communities can gather to draw on the abundance of adult learning experience and expertise. *We recognize our differences - social, cultural, political or otherwise - and draw strength from our diversity. By identifying the connections between our struggles, we can take collective action towards positive social change.
