Friends of the Co-ops

We are an organization open to all students, faculty, and staff interested in the Berkeley Student Housing Co-ops. We are a link between the UC Campus and the BSC (Berkeley Student Cooperative). Our mission is to provide affordable housing to students. The mission of Friends of the Co-ops is to provide an extension of the Berkeley Student Cooperative (BSC) community on campus. The BSC is a non-profit housing cooperative that is 1200+ members strong and is committed to providing a quality, low-cost, cooperative housing community to students. This organization will work to fight for co-op interests on campus, link the Berkeley community to the cooperative movement, and movement build using the Solidarity Economy (SE) framework.
