*UNDER CONSTRUCTION* Eco Demo Law Center
for a new economy
for a new economy
We WILL provide legal scaffolding for rebuilding neighborhood resilience.
Eco Demo Law Center WILL exists to incubate regenerative, cooperative, democratic systems
that move communities in the Southeast from vision to implementation.
We believe a republic cannot stand on sharecropping; liberty requires proprietorship.
Our work is to replace systems of dependency with "the wealth of neighbors."
By distributing sovereignty to the smallest viable units—our homes, our businesses, and our blocks—
we ensure that we don't just survive the future; we own it.
Eco Demo Law Center WILL BE an incubator for economic and environmental sovereignty in the Southeast.
We WILL BE a worker self-directed nonprofit dedicated to modeling regenerative, cooperative, democratic systems.
We help you move from vision to strategy by providing legal education,
drafting model documents, and hosting community conversations.
Our goal is to get your team 80% of the way to a finished project
through shared expertise and mutual selection.
We advocate for a conducive regulatory environment required
for regenerative, cooperative, democratic systems to thrive.
Our goal is to help people restore proprietorship to the people.
We shield the public interest, litigating cases that have systemic impacts on our economic environment.
We represent taxpayers, nonprofits, and unrepresented communities
in the struggle for right. We challenge centralized power to ensure that
those most impacted by economic and environmental decisions are the ones who govern them.
We resource the formation of new cooperative ventures through Technical Assistance Grants.
Our role is to ensure invisible legal startup cost do not prevent a community from owning its own infrastructure.
