💻Nearly 40 ROC leaders and folks from 3 different CTAPs came together for August's Better Together Call to discuss annual meeting planning and its unique challenges and approaches. ROC leaders were also joined by new ROC USA President Emily Thaden, who introduced herself during her first Better Together call! ROC leaders and TAs had a robust conversation about what it takes to pull off the annual meeting, from getting quorum and unique state-level differences in co-op laws to best practices and learned lessons, and exemplified what happens on these calls: Better Together in action. 🤝 Thank you to all who joined.

Making resident ownership of manufactured home communities viable nationwide.
About us
ROC USA® works to make quality resident ownership possible nationwide. When a manufactured home community or “mobile home park” is for sale, ROC USA seeks to provide homeowners who are working together as a democratic organization with the opportunity to purchase their community. ROC USA also provides groups with ongoing technical training and networking support to help them build value and be successful over time. In short, we work to preserve and improve affordable communities, build assets for low- and moderate-income families and individuals, support mutually supportive communities and leaders.

We are thrilled to announce that Hamilton Place in Mountain Home, Idaho, is now a ROC! On July 12, homeowners purchased the community for $1.13 million, ensuring housing stability for future generations. The staff at LEAP Housing and ROC USA Capital provided incredible support throughout the process. This acquisition marks the 329th ROC working with ROC USA and demonstrates the power of community ownership. Congratulations to Board President Barry Shanahan and the Hamilton Place residents for their dedication and hard work. Together, they're addressing critical infrastructure needs and enhancing their neighborhood. We look forward to seeing the continued growth and improvements in Hamilton Place. Here's to a bright future for this resilient community! #BetterTogether #Coops
