About

About SoCo.

Organizing works better when people aren't doing it alone.

SoCo is a private space where students, organizers, professors, neighbors, companies, nonprofits, and politicians can share resources and show up for the causes they care about.

Structure

Two organizations, one shared space.

The mission rents space back from the operation.

Solidarity Co-working

Runs the operation — licenses, insurance, rent, and maintenance — and offers values-aligned paid workspace.

Solidarity Collective

Carries the mission — raising donations to rent space back from the operation so grassroots groups can use it at reduced or no cost.

What we stand for

Values with teeth.

  • No member group may work with defense companies or hold defense contracts.
  • Members are asked to avoid vendors boycotted by the causes represented in the space.

Where we're headed

Building toward nonprofit footing.

Both organizations are transitioning to nonprofit status with independent boards. The lease was signed July 8th, with a target buildout completion within seven months.
