We meet in person every other week to hash out ideas for actions and help each member get involved.
Common Features of an Indivisible Community-Building Event
A typical Indivisible community-building event is designed to strengthen relationships among members, foster a sense of belonging, and energize grassroots activism. These events are intentionally informal, inclusive, and fun, while still rooted in the broader mission of civic engagement and progressive organizing.
