Who we are

Indivisible is a nationwide movement of millions of people working to stop the rise of authoritarianism in the United States and to demand a real democracy. We believe that politics is too important to leave up to the politicians – it requires all of us to get on the field.

We know that democracy only works when everyday people organize, show up, and hold those in power accountable. Indivisible was founded in 2016 by former congressional staffers who saw, from the inside, how grassroots pressure can shape political outcomes. What began as a practical guide for civic action quickly grew into a powerful, people-led movement.

When you join Indivisible, you join a movement, not a nonprofit. There are more than 2,000 local, volunteer-led Indivisible groups in urban, suburban, and rural communities across every state in the country. Indivisible leaders and members show up and do stuff together. They speak with their neighbors. They advocate. They train. They elect new leaders. They name and shame. They try out new tactics. They make a splash. They get attention. And they force the political and economic systems that influence our lives to listen and change. We call this organizing, and it’s how we build and wield power together. 

Our organization supports locally led organizing because real change won’t come from politicians, but from organized people power. Indivisible provides tools, training, research, and strategic coordination so people can take effective action—whether that means protecting free and fair elections, stopping harmful legislation, or demanding bold solutions to the challenges we face.

Our vision is a democracy that delivers for everyone—not just the wealthy or well-connected. We are committed to nonviolent action, multiracial democracy, and a government that is accountable to the people it serves.

Together, we are indivisible.
