We called this model "A Blueprint for Creating Pathways to Ownership for Low and Moderate Income Workers," or the "BLUEPRINT" for short.

Succession Planning for Purchasing Cooperatives & their Membersproject-equity
Employee ownership: Keeping businesses independent when family can’t take over
Succession planning is an urgent need among an increasing number of businesses, especially as baby boomers near retirement age. Because purchasing cooperatives are an important part of helping their independent business members stay independent, competitive and rooted in their communities, the National Cooperative Business Association (NCBA CLUSA) has partnered with Project Equity to better understand the succession challenges of purchasing cooperative member companies, and to assess how employee ownership transitions can help keep these companies independent over the long term.
Join NCBA CLUSA, Project Equity and our purchasing cooperative panelists to learn more about how purchasing coops and other independent business networks can utilize employee ownership and worker cooperative conversions to help locally-owned businesses stay locally-owned for the long term.
In this webinar, you’ll learn:
- How converting a business to employee ownership works
- Approaches to financing employee buy-outs
- Education programs you can implement across your business network
- General timeline and cost to consider for conversion
Recruit, Retain and Reward Your MembersCathi Hight
Recognize the myths and realities about keeping members and become familiar with concepts and strategies to deliver products and services that meet your members' ever-changing needs, and explore how to develop loyal members.
Succession Planning: Opportunities and Benefits of Employee Ownershipproject-equity
Are you a business owner thinking about succession planning? Or are you wanting to support locally-owned businesses to stay in their communities? Project Equity and the National Center for Employee Ownership offer this webinar to share essential information on important succession planning options available to business owners through employee ownership. We will review the main features of employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs) and worker-owned cooperatives, and will discuss the benefits and distinctions of each, including resources for how to learn more, and how to get support. Rob Brown from Cooperative Development Institute shares a case study of a business that sold to its employees to a worker-owned cooperative.
For business owners who want to see their businesses remain in their communities, want their employees to be well taken care of when they retire or sell their business, and who want their mission and the core strengths of their business to remain intact, employee ownership is a great fit.

Our annual series of Charity Seminars held across the region will this year focus on the various elements involved in building a sustainable charity.
The seminar programme will cover:
• Creating a vision: How to build a resilient organisation and resilient teams
• Turning a vision into a plan: What does a good plan look like and how do you obtain funding?
• Keeping the plan on track: This session will focus on key aspects of financial reporting including the different information requirements of management and trustees
• Effective trustee boards as part of building a sustainable charity
• Real relationships that provide sustainable income
• Why are you here? Achieving impact from your fundraising messages
The first Strategic Plan and Work Plan for the Illinois Park and Recreation Association (IPRA) covered the two-year period of 2006 and 2007 and will continue to be the basic working document to direct the association for the future.
The Strategic Plan is a continuous working document that provides a clear direction for the work of the association as a unified, future developing organization. Its direction is also to support the Board of Directors in a positive decision making process regarding organizational direction, budget and program priorities.
Its core direction follows the mission and values of the association with working towards enhancing and improving programs and services for the members. Staff reviewed the 2006/2007 Strategic Plan and has redirected items from the current plan that were not accomplished or were semi-accomplished to the 2007/2008 Strategic Plan.
The 2007/2008 Strategic Plan is not a “work plan” but an open document that may change with the direction of the association. Outcomes are accomplished through the IPRA Staff Work Plan which may incorporate Governance or Board Policy outcomes to assist the Board of Directors. The Staff Work Plan is a creative, project management oriented document that allows significant research and testing before the outcome is specified as completed. The allowance of creativity and project management within the Work Plan is significant as it allows for “trial and error” before a positive outcome is accomplished thus completing the outcome to the satisfaction of the Board of Directors.
