Our Mission
To provide opportunities for member-owners to flourish through self-help, self-governance, equity sharing, and mutual aid. We help each other thrive through co-op magic.
Our Vision
QCC provides inclusive, democratic, affordable, member-owned housing.
Our Values
Inclusive membership: We welcome members from all races, ethnicities, cultures, sexual identities, genders, source of income, familial composition, and those with different degrees of mobility.
Democracy: We encourage and nurture democratic participation and governance of our members, providing opportunities for members to organize and self-advocate.
Education: We offer ongoing education to members regarding cooperative ownership; creating an inclusive culture; effective democratic participation; and stewardship of the property; QCC strives to educate the public about cooperatives.
Neutrality: We are a secular organization that holds membership only in other cooperative organizations.
Expansion: So that more people may experience the benefits of cooperation, we seek opportunities to leverage cooperative resources in order to expand member services and to aid other cooperative organizations in expanding their services.
Equity: We provide a limited equity return to members in good standing.
Thrivability: We leverage collective resources to improve the living conditions within the Cooperative and the standard of living of member-owners.
