The U.S. Senate is on record recognizing 2012 as International Year of the Cooperatives, and many conferences and other events will call attention to cooperatives next year. We expect to complete Shift Change in time to screen at such events and appear on television to widen and deepen the discussions of how cooperatives can help restore economic stability and social equity.
