Every day more and more Californians are losing their jobs, falling further behind on their rent or mortgage payments and sending their kids to failing schools. The Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment is dedicated to raising the voices of everyday Californians, neighborhood by neighborhood, so that our children have stronger communities and expanded opportunities. Fueled by modest membership dues and a vast network of volunteers across the state, The Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment creates transformative change by organizing ordinary citizens to take action on issues such as public education, home foreclosures and the state budget crisis. The Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment is a new, independent, state-based nonprofit that was started by former members and staff of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), which will be closing many of its operations in California.
