Our Party

Rooted in Community, Driven by Values

Progress Starts Here

The Democratic Party of Outagamie County (DPOC) is one of 72 county parties across Wisconsin committed to advancing progressive values, opportunity, equality, and well-being for all. We actively support and elect candidates who share these values and are ready to lead with integrity.

Based in Northeast Wisconsin, we serve the communities of Appleton, Little Chute, Combined Locks, Kaukauna, Kimberly, Wrightstown, Seymour, Black Creek, Shiocton, New London, Hortonville, Greenville, Grand Chute, and beyond. With over 250 members and growing, our party reflects a wide range of ages, backgrounds, and life experiences. We are proud to be a welcoming and inclusive organization for all who share our vision for a better future.

Our Mission

What drives us.

The mission of the Democratic Party of Outagamie County is to raise awareness of the Democratic Party’s values, grow our membership, and develop an engaged network of volunteers to help elect Democrats into office at all levels — in local, state, and federal elections.

Our Purpose

What We’re Here to Do

The purpose of our local county party, per our constitution, is as follows: “It shall be the primary responsibility of the County Party to develop the fullest possible Party membership in the county; to hold regularly scheduled meetings; to encourage Democratic candidates for county and legislative offices; to form and maintain an effective campaign organization; to make recommendations for a Party platform; and, generally, to promote the interests of the Democratic Party in the county.”

Our Beliefs

Stronger Together

There are several core beliefs that tie our party together: Democrats believe that we’re greater together than we are on our own — that this country succeeds when everyone gets a fair shot, everyone does their fair share, and everyone plays by the same rules. Our party is focused on building an economy that lifts up all Americans, not just those at the top.

The Democratic Party of Outagamie County supports the platforms of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin and the National Democratic Party.
