Get Your Deposit In – ACORN Convention is the BIGGEST Grassroots Event of the Year!

Posted November 15, 2025

Every two years, members and allies from across the country come together for our National Convention — three unforgettable days of workshops, speakers, actions, and celebration of ACORN’s power.

Convention is where ACORN strengthens our organizing & leadership skills, share our victories, and plan the fights ahead for affordable housing, fair banking, climate justice, and a Canada that works for the many, not the few.
