The Worker Co-op Conference is the only national event where worker-owners from across the United States gather to learn and build power together.

We're excited to announce that the 2026 Worker Co-op Conference will be held at Roxbury Community College in Boston, MA! Get ready to join us on September 25th - 26th for new connections, inspiration, and collective learning.

In person, you can look forward to:

  • Tours of the local worker co-op and solidarity economy ecosystem
  • Breakout sessions to dig deeper into worker co-op business development, skill-building, networking, advocacy, and more

Not able to travel?

  • This year we are encouraging communities to host satellite WCC events to provide an opportunity for people to still attend in-person gatherings and be tuned into the national conference together.

The conference cultivates a network of interconnected and interdependent worker owners, business developers, policymakers, funders, and labor organizers, all driven toward a common goal of improving the lives of workers and their families.
