# Structure of the Co-op

Our legal structure is a Co-operative Society.

Our legal structure is a Co-operative Society.

We are a multi-stakeholder co-operative. This means we have several categories of membership and work together to make sure all voices are being heard and that no one group has more power than any other.&#x20;

There is an elected Board of Directors. Some decisions are delegated to them.

There are three categories of membership:

* User members (Deaf people)
* Worker members (communication professionals including interpreters, lipspeakers, translators, Deafblind interpreters...)
* Investor members

Any decisions that will have consequences should be discussed and voted on by the membership.&#x20;
