Our Values
The Davenport NDP Riding Association is an active Electoral District Association (EDA) for both the federal and provincial NDP. We are neighbours working together to build a more affordable, inclusive, and caring Davenport.
We organize locally to support progressive change and advocate for the issues that matter most in our community — including affordable housing, public transit, healthcare, education, workers’ rights, and climate action.
Our volunteer Executive team helps connect residents, support campaigns, and strengthen local democratic participation.
Get involved. Make a difference, Help build a better Davenport.
