Welcome to our Democratic Community
About Us
Welcome to the Chippewa Democratic Club, one of New York City's oldest and most respected Democratic organizations. Founded in 1898, our club has a long and proud history of championing progressive values and advocating for the needs of our community.
Our Mission
The Chippewa Democratic Club is dedicated to promoting social justice, economic equality, and democratic principles in New York's 82nd Assembly District, which encompasses a vibrant array of neighborhoods in the Eastern Bronx. We strive to engage and empower our community through grassroots activism, civic participation, and progressive policy advocacy.
Our History
For over a century, the Chippewa Democratic Club has been at the forefront of political and social change in New York City. Since our establishment, we have played a pivotal role in numerous local, state, and national elections, contributing to the election of leaders who are committed to making a positive impact on our community and beyond. Our legacy is built on a foundation of dedication, resilience, and a steadfast commitment to the democratic process.
What We Do
Community Engagement
We believe that meaningful change starts at the local level. Our club organizes regular events, town hall meetings, and community forums to ensure that the voices of our residents are heard and their concerns addressed. We work closely with community leaders, activists, and local organizations to tackle the pressing issues facing our neighborhoods.
Advocacy and Policy
The Chippewa Democratic Club advocates for policies that promote social and economic justice. We support legislation that protects workers' rights, ensures affordable housing, expands access to quality healthcare, and addresses climate change. By collaborating with elected officials and policy experts, we work to create a more equitable and sustainable future for all.
Voter Mobilization
One of our core objectives is to increase voter turnout and civic engagement within the 82nd Assembly District. We conduct voter registration drives, provide information on polling locations, and offer assistance with absentee and early voting processes. Our goal is to ensure that every eligible voter in our district has the opportunity to participate in the democratic process.
Youth Involvement
We are committed to fostering the next generation of Democratic leaders. Our club offers mentorship programs, internships, and leadership training for young activists. We believe in the power of youth to drive progressive change and are dedicated to providing them with the tools and opportunities to make a difference.
