During this unprecedented time, we need to come together!
Indivisible DuPage is one of thousands of locally organized Indivisible groups across the nation, an integral part of a grassroots movement founded in 2017, sparked by publication of the “Indivisible Guide.” About 1,000 strong in DuPage, we are neighbors who share democratic and progressive values who work together to elect progressive leaders, rebuild our democracy, and defeat the Trump agenda.
How do we do this? Some of our past activities include:
Meetings with local elected officials and our members of Congress
Organizing, promoting, and participating in peaceful protests
Election canvassing
Organizing community building events, like book discussion groups and family-friendly picnics
Writing postcards to encourage voter engagement and turnout
Phone banking for local, state and national elections
Running voter registration drives
Setting up Bridge Brigades on bridges and overpasses
Promoting small acts of resistance, like Chalk the Walk
"Together we fight to defeat the right-wing takeover of American government and build an inclusive democracy."

Indivisible was founded by Ezra Levin and Leah Greenberg in 2016 in response to Trump’s first term and how his policies affect our democracy. It began with the Indivisible Guide, a Google Doc guide to organizing locally to pressure your elected officials to resist Trump’s agenda. Quickly, it caught on as millions of people picked up the guide and formed statewide and local chapters of Indivisible. These chapters are taking matters into their own hands to build their own power through collective action.This is accomplished by working on organizing and encouraging advocacy through many means, including reaching out to elected officials, peacefully protesting on behalf of the rights of all and participating in voter engagement both locally and nationally.
The three main values promoted by Indivisible are:
Inclusion–inclusion of all people regardless of political party, identity and background
Respect–promoting an environment of tolerance and fairness
Nonviolence–advocating for our beliefs by respecting property and personal safety
