Current Activities

NASCO has an annual conference, NASCO Institute. This is a multiday conference, most of which is spent in workshops. These courses cover topics of interest to participants in the cooperative movement and progressivism in general. There is typically a guest speaker.

NASCO works closely with NASCO Properties and Campus Cooperative Development Corporation to provide financial and educational support to a large number of cooperatives, in particular student housing cooperatives.
