NASCO (North American Students of Cooperation) is an alliance of group-equity housing cooperatives helping to build a world where every community benefits from resident-controlled housing by educating and organizing youth and emerging leaders to create and care for co-ops in the US and Canada.
NASCO is the successor of the North American Student Cooperative League (NASCL). NASCL was founded in 1946 with the assistance of the Cooperative League of the USA, now known as the National Cooperative Business Association (NCBA).
SHCLT is a project of the Bloomington Housing Authority. Established in 1961, BHA’s first affordable housing units were completed in 1968. Currently, the BHA employs a staff of 30 employees and provides housing assistance to over 2,500 Monroe County households each year.
The BHA operates three affordable housing communities and provides more than 1,300 Housing Choice Vouchers, also known as Section 8, that allow income eligible families to rent in the private market. Along with housing assistance, the BHA maintains active service coordination programs including the Family Self-Sufficiency Program and Step Up Program.
