The Federation of Southern Cooperatives/Land Assistance Fund is a 55-year-old non-profit cooperative association of black farmers, landowners, and cooperatives.

Our mission is to be a catalyst for the development of self-supporting communities through cooperative economic development, land retention, and advocacy.

What We Do: 
(1) Develop cooperatives and credit unions as a means for people to enhance the quality of their lives and improve their communities
(2) Save, protect, and expand the landholdings of Black farmers and other underserved farmers in the South
(3) Develop, advocate and support public policies to benefit our membership

The Federation is also supported by grassroots organizations and corporate sponsors who are on a mission to create economic freedom and racial equity.   

Currently, there are over 70 active cooperative member groups, themselves with a membership of more than 20,000 families working together across ten southern states, with a concentration in Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina.
