The Co-operative Housing Federation of BC (CHF BC) is a co-operative association made up of member housing co-ops and related organizations in British Columbia. Members send delegates to federation meetings to represent their co-op, elect (or run for) the board of directors at the annual general meeting, and/or to serve on CHF BC committees. This member direction helps CHF BC focus on meeting the needs of housing co-ops.You can represent the interests of your members by adding your co-op's voice to the co-operative housing movement. Working together we have created a strong co-operative federation, and we invite your co-op to join us.
