Our mission is to create and coordinate housing coops in New York State that are dedicated to the restricted lifestyle required by chemically-sensitive and electrically-sensitive people.
Here are our defining documents:
- Canary Cooperative Case Statement – A thorough explanation of the need for affordable MCS housing, our solution, and how anyone can help.
- Canary Cooperative Values and Principles
- Clearing Process for New Coop Members and Process for Creating a New Site
- Member Rights and Responsibilities
- Why a Cooperative? Eleven reasons why MCS people need housing cooperatives.
- Follow the Money – A four page explanation of why we need financial help to create affordable MCS housing, and how the Canary Coop would purchase a site and sell shares to members.
- Advocate with your political representatives on behalf of the community and the cause using this letter as a template that you can personalize or simply send. Don’t know who your representatives are? Go here.
