Coalition of ACORN Leaders

The Coalition of ACORN Leaders was a group formed by local leaders affiliated with ACORN (the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now), a community-based organization advocating for low- and moderate-income families. The coalition aimed to coordinate efforts, share strategies, and advocate for social and economic reforms. It served as a platform for leaders to unite around common goals related to housing, employment, and civic engagement. The coalition's activities gained media attention during the late 2000s, notably amid controversies involving ACORN, highlighting their role in organizing community-driven initiatives and policy advocacy.
