Welcome to
Arizona Center for
Empowerment
Arizona Center for Empowerment (ACE) is a 501(c)3 member-led social justice organization that develops and mobilizes undocumented working youth and adults, students, and LGBTQ individuals to strategically take ownership and responsibility to advance economic, social, and racial justice. By building power through leadership development, Citizenship, civic engagement, advocacy and education, we are creating a more inclusive and just standard of equality in the state of Arizona. Income equality, protection of public education, immigrant rights, and health care are just a few of ACE’s priorities in creating a better Arizona for all.
The Arizona Center for Empowerment and the People First Economy Campaign for Arizona reimagines an economy that values people over profit, empowers our workforce, invests in education, and redistributes wealth. Most importantly, we reimagine a state budget that reflects the immediate and long term investment needs of Arizona’s people.
Our empowerment services department provides our members with the resources, guidance, and tools they need to navigate our complicated and unfair immigration system.
Through advocacy and collective action, we aspire to create a sustainable and just water future for all, protecting the vital resources that sustain life and the environment while safeguarding the well-being of historically underserved Tribal communities and those most impacted by environmental racism.
Defending our democracy means mobilizing people for political consciousness and systemic change. We, the people, have the power. We will learn how to take back power through advocacy and direct action.
