Worker co-ops in Cleveland to build wealth for inner-city residents
A group of Cleveland non-profits is backing a socially-conscious, eco-development in an inner-city neighborhood. They hope the environmentally-friendly workers cooperative will help build wealth for impoverished residents. Evergreen Laundry is the first of of several cooperative ventures envisioned for the University Circle neighborhood.
Karen Schaefer from WKSU, the Kent State University public radio station, has an audio piece on their website at http://www.wksu.org/news/story/23426.
