Hybrid Event
Following the success of our hybrid SAGM earlier this year, and to ensure all our members have access to the meeting, we will open again be offering a hybrid online and in-person event.
The heart of co-op housing is a sense of connectedness and community. Networking is undoubtedly the most valuable aspect of attending an event in person, but we recognize that not everyone is ready to take that leap. For some, the convenience of staying at home and reducing travel and childcare costs is equally important.
Delegates, Alternates,
Observers, and Guests
Each CHF BC member may be represented by one delegate. Each member may also appoint an alternate delegate. A delegate orientation video will be shared in advance of the meeting.
We encourage members who are not their co-op’s delegate to register as observers. Individuals from non-member organizations are invited to register as guests.
Registration Costs
- In Person: $60, includes lunch
- Online: $25
Registration will close Thursday, November 17 at 3:00 p.m.
Delegate Orientation
Whether you are a new delegate for your co-op, or someone who’s been to CHF BC meetings in the past, this video will give an orientation to the federation and show you everything you need to know about the meeting. It also describes how you can fully participate whether you are attending in person or online.
