About

The Coalition of Community Organizations (COCO) originated in 2008 through the work of dedicated members from several community organizations, and residents in Houston and surrounding areas. These groups began working together to make sure that community interests are represented at the city, state, and national levels, and that elected officials, corporations, businesses, law enforcement, and clergy have a vested interest in our communities.
