Explore RMEOC's diverse programs, including Employee Ownership Conversion, Incubation, Research/Policy initiatives, and Social Cooperatives, all designed to promote economic resilience and equity.
The U.S. has a growing understanding of the benefits of employee ownership. Now is the moment to expand policies to support and grow EO businesses across the economy.
Discover how our Employee Ownership Incubation program empowers marginalized communities by transforming visionary ideas into thriving, employee-owned cooperatives. From initial concept to sustainable operation, we provide comprehensive support to foster economic resilience and equity.
Did you know that 80% of businesses listed for sale never find a buyer? Too often, this leads to closures—costing loyal employees their jobs, pulling money out of the community, and handing opportunities over to big corporations instead of keeping them local.
Social cooperatives are a powerful model for delivering high-quality, community-driven care while ensuring fair wages and democratic governance. Around the world, they have successfully addressed gaps in childcare, elder care, and disability services. RMEOC is leading efforts to bring this model to the U.S. through policy advocacy, education, and hands-on support. Join us in building a better future for care work and economic democracy.
