Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. A Librarian at Every Table. No. 263.

ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, is the nation's largest community organization of low- and moderate-income families, working together for social justice and stronger communities.

ACORN works in more than 75 cities across the United States to improve housing conditions for the economically disadvantaged, increase community safety, secure living wages for all workers and improve the quality of local schools.

ACORN members participate in local meetings and actively work on campaigns, elect leadership from the neighborhood level up, and pay the organizations core expenses through membership dues and grassroots fundraisers.
Please let me know of library projects connected to ACORN.
