TA Providers: General Questions

CWB Goals

Please provide a brief update on your progress toward your proposed CWB goals in the last reporting period:

January was relatively slow given the weather and holidays, but we began planning for our calendar year and how we aim to be more effective and intentional when it comes to hitting our work plan deliverables.

What constraints or limitations, if any, did you experience in the last reporting period?

The weather and holiday season in the month of January generally meant less access to canvassing opportunities overall.

What opportunities, if any, did you take advantage of in the last reporting period?

I have enrolled in DAWI's Worker Developer cohort, a great opportunity to get more insights into worker cooperative development. The cohort also gives me the opportunity to connect with CWB partners in an individual level.
