Ashley Bouman
Portfolio

Welcome to my Online Portfolio!

Hello, thank you for stopping by my official website.
My name is Ashley Bouman and I was born and raised in Cobourg, Ontario. In my 37th year of life, motivated by what I have seen as a tenant and worker in Cobourg, and my experiences as a Committee Member on the Town of Cobourg's Equity, Diversity & Inclusion Advisory Committee, I decided to run as a Town Councillor in the 2022 Municipal Election.

I did really well for my first try by getting 2,269 votes (33% of all viable ballots) but did not make it on Council this election.

I am a highly motivated community advocate with over 10 years experience advising and building partnerships within the not-for-profit sector in Northumberland County.

An award-winning visionary behind the progression of queer visibility and representation in rural Ontario.


Issues that I am passionate about:

Increasing Accessibility & Disability Advocacy

Queer Education & Representation

Environment & Sustainability

Attainable Housing & Tenant Rights Advocacy

Human Rights

Equity, Diversity & Inclusion
