Do You Qualify?
Participants engaged in "The Futures Game" in Castlegar.
Eligible community social service non-profit organizations in the Columbia Basin are invited to apply for a $750 training subsidy. Through the partnership with Columbia Basin Trust, the Co-op was able to provide over 40 training subsidies in the first year.
Sports, arts and culture organizations, environmental organizations and community foundations are not eligible to access the Co-op training subsidies. However, individuals from these organizations are encouraged to attend Co-op training events.

- Be a non-governmental and non-profit agency (child-care centres do qualify) and
- Be a registered charity (or in the process of becoming a registered charity) and
- Be a multi-purpose community social service organization serving a variety of at – risk populations in Columbia Basin communities and
- Have a service area within the Columbia Basin and
- Be governed by a voluntary Board of Directors and have a clearly defined mission statement.
