Cleveland Owns

Cleveland Owns is an economic democracy incubator based in Cleveland, OH, that focuses on building cooperative businesses and advocating for community control of resources. Their mission is to empower residents by organizing multiracial, grassroots cooperatives that enable member owners to build wealth and power, ultimately working towards a Cleveland owned by its residents.

Through their support of worker and neighbor groups, Cleveland Owns helps them transform their existing resources into what they need to demand their fair share of the region's prosperity. They currently support five cornerstone cooperatives in clean energy, food access, digital access, and collective purchasing, while also advocating for deeper democracy in the public sector through initiatives like participatory budgeting.
