About the
Center for Cooperative Principles
The Center for Cooperative
Principles, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, is a global,
educational organization. Through modeling cooperation, and
educating about how to create positive relationships that
meet all needs and bring out the best in everyone, we are
nurturing the seeds of unity in consciousness.
Establishing new ways of
being in our individual and collective lives requires a
vision that serves as a blueprint and the tools with which
to build a new way of life. In this time of transition,
there is much that we can do together to open hearts,
illumine understanding, inspire goodwill and empower
cooperation.
