Stated Mission (from website)
CHF BC was formed in 1982 by members of BC housing co-ops who wanted to:
 * expand non-profit co-op housing
 * promote better housing conditions in BC
 * share skills and information within the co-op housing sector
 * represent co-op housing to governments and the public
 * promote the co-op movement and co-op principles in BC

Observations (based on website)

 * 1) Scope: website says there are more than 255 non-profit housing co-ops comprising 14,300 units in British Columbia
 * 2) Services offered: focus on the cooperatives themselves, e.g. legislation, model rules, bulk purchasing, e.g. coin-operated washers & dryers
 * 3) Publishes SCOPE, a quarterly member magazine with a circulation of 11,000
 * 4) Conducts regular (quarterly?) educational conferences
