Mission
The mission of the ACCE Institute is to improve the lives of California's traditionally underserved residents, including communities of color, low-income and working families, and the undocumented population, by carrying out work that fosters deep, indigenous leadership development, policy creation, robust civic participation, and broad community empowerment.
Program accomplishments
- ACCE held dozens of training programs for both members and organizers, with over 400 ACCE members and 25 organizers participating in them. Across the state, ACCE worked with several legal aid organizations, including one of our core partners - the California Center for Movement Legal Services - to host over 200 Know Your Rights tenant clinics and served over 5000 tenants! ACCE, in partnership with Public Counsel, also began hosting a monthly legal clinic for homeowners serving 100 homeowners this year! Our organizers canvassed impacted neighborhoods to educate community members about the negative impact of gas stoves and appliances on the health of users, and discussedopportunities for Richmond to achieve clean, affordable, green energy through electrification and leveraging funds available through the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA).2024 was a year of significant victory and experimentation for ACCE. We made major strides toward protecting tenants in the cities where we organize, and dipped our toes into the worlds of climate and transit justice - re-establishing ACCE as a multi-issue organization nimble enough to take on campaigns on a myriad of topics. We made progress in aligning our work to our organizing north stars, and built out our organizing capacities with stronger communications, data, and finance teams. Volunteers: 2500Expenses $5,083,321
