FACE and ACORN

September 30, 2009

 

Recently there have been public allegations made about connections between FACE and ACORN.   There are no formal connections between FACE and ACORN, and there never have been. ACORN, despite its troubles is a good organization that works on affordable housing and urban renewal in many states across the U.S.   Hawaii isn’t one of them though, and hasn’t been for some time.

FACE’s only contact with ACORN was a single meeting on healthcare in 2008 when they showed up for the launch of our healthcare campaign, along with the Kokua Council, the ILWU, and the Teamsters.   We had hoped they would support our campaign, but they dissolved their Hawaii office a week later.
