The Change Up

Our five-year goal is to open a cooperative community center and phase one of attaining that goal is to create a collaborative coworking space that is accessible to all members of the community — especially Black, low-income residents of the West End of Louisville, KY. Offering access to free wifi, coffee, light refreshments, a kitchen, a computer lap, a shower, a clothing swap closet, a resource room, a DIY maker lab, podcast studio, ample office furniture that displays traditional and nontraditional settings to encourage growth and comfortability, a blue-light and Himalayan salt sensory, meditation and calming room, on-call therapists that accept Medicaid/Medicare, photography studio, and ultimately the opportunity to network and collaborate with community organizations and leaders to find and execute solutions to our city’s problems.
