Join What’s Building for Alberta Co-ops

Something is building across Alberta’s co-operative sector.

Over the past year, we’ve seen stronger connections, increased visibility, and growing interest in the co-operative model — across regions, sectors, and communities.

This is not a single initiative.

It reflects a more coordinated approach to how we connect, share, and move the sector forward.

And it’s creating new opportunities for co-operatives to engage, contribute, and be part of what comes next.

Your Role in This Work

The strength of Alberta’s co-operative sector is not built by institutions alone.

It is shaped by how co-operatives choose to participate.

Through governance.
Through engagement in shared spaces.
Through supporting sector-wide efforts.
Through championing the model within your own organization.

This work is connected.

The Conference. Business Not As Usual. Leadership development. Shared services.
Each effort builds on the next.

And the more aligned we are in our engagement, the stronger and more visible the sector becomes.

What Membership Makes Possible

ACCA membership connects your co-operative to the people, opportunities, and supports shaping this work across Alberta.

As a member, you are able to:

• Connect with co-operatives and sector leaders across Alberta

• Access co-op-aligned services and trusted providers

• Participate in sector-wide initiatives and events

• Increase visibility for your organization and its work

• Contribute to a stronger, more coordinated voice

This is not simply access to benefits.

It is a way to be part of a coordinated effort to strengthen and advance Alberta’s co-operative sector.

A Practical Way to Step In

To support broader participation, ACCA is introducing an introductory $500 membership for new and returning co-operatives with a two-year commitment.

This is not a promotion.

It is a practical way to increase participation at a time when momentum is building across the sector.

Participation matters.

The more co-operatives that are engaged, the stronger and more effective this work becomes.

Who This Is For

Whether you are:

• exploring the co-operative model

• strengthening your existing organization

• or reconnecting with the sector
