After James O’Keefe trashed ACORN with his undercover video, depicting their willingness to help a child prostitution business avoid legal troubles, the organization has fallen under hard times.
It was expected that renaming would be needed in order to survive. Many branches are dissociating themselves from the main organization and operating offices with same staff, using new names.
Some examples of ACORN in disguise supplied by My Way News are:
ACORN Housing, is now Affordable Housing Centers of America.
California ACORN has become Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment.
New York ACORN has morphed into New York Communities for Change.
Keep an eye out for ACORN in disguise, (and watch for these in the USCCB list of grantees.)
