What is Brunswick Co‑operative Housing (BRUNCH)?

BRUNCH is an incorporated association founded in 1995 with the signing of an agreement between CHF Canada and its New Brunswick members. On December 31, 2006, BRUNCH was incorporated as a federation, the first incorporated federation in New Brunswick in 60 years. BRUNCH represents and provides limited services for about 20 BRUNCH member co‑ops.

BRUNCH takes part in the lobbying activities organized nationally by CHF Canada. A member of its executive committee represents the association at CHF Canada’s Federations Committee.

How is BRUNCH run?

BRUNCH is governed by an executive committee of five to seven members in three-year term positions. The association is operated by volunteers.
