Throughout the year, CHF Canada member co-ops come together regionally and nationally to shape the future of co-op housing in Canada. They gather to celebrate successes, build networks, improve governance skills, share concerns and dreams, discuss emerging issues and lobby government.
You’ll find all CHF Canada’s events listed below, with more information on how to register or take part.
In addition to exciting live virtual and in person events, CHF Canada has an online learning platform where housing co-op members, directors and staff can learn anytime! Learn more here.

Are you REALLY ready for change? National April 23, 2025 RegisterBrochure
6:00-8:00PM EST
Join us for the third and final workshop in our National Spring Education series, taking place in February, March and April.
Housing co-ops can make the most of new opportunities and respond to challenges if they are able to adapt and grow as circumstances change. Change is the answer, but change can involve risk and that makes people uncomfortable and reluctant. Attend this webinar to:
- find out about the five key reasons that change initiatives fail – and how to avoid them,
- prepare your co-op to move through change with more ease,
- use the dynamic force of change to improve community engagement,
- improve the success of your local change initiatives.
