Common Good Cooperatives, Dorchester, Mass.
Clemente Course in the Humanities, Dorchester, Mass.
The Common Good Cooperative was founded in Boston, Massachusetts, by Kafi Dixon, who sought cooperative models and solidarity agreements to self-actualize community stabilization. Women nationally and globally face a disproportionate burden of health disparities, experiences with structural violence, and few opportunities for economic mobility - the mothers and women who founded Common Good Cooperatives sought to disrupt this cycle in Boston by providing community spaces for social and economic growth and healing.
