Helen Kennedy (born 1958) is a Canadian politician and social activist.
Kennedy began her career as an activist and change agent with the Industrial Accident Prevention Association, where she became an advocate for workplace safety and people with disabilities, building awareness as editor of the association's magazine.
She also established Citizens for Access, an awareness campaign to open up public buildings to people with disabilities.
She served until 1991, leaving due to the increased demands of her position at Queen's Park when the NDP won the provincial election and formed the government.
In additional to Chow, Kennedy's candidacy was also endorsed by Green Party of Canada leader Elizabeth May and Conservative Senator Nancy Ruth.
