Organizing Locally, Impacting Nationally

Launched in February, 2025, Champlain Valley Indivisible is a community of non-violent activists determined to protect democratic norms and resist authoritarianism. We’re part of an ever-growing network of activists throughout Vermont and across the country, working toward a more inclusive and representative democracy.

Champlain Valley Indivisible is an all-volunteer, grassroots group dedicated to building community, protecting democracy, and resisting authoritarianism.  Founded in the wake of rising anti-democratic rhetoric and threats to constitutional norms, our chapter began with living room conversations, handmade signs, and calls to our representatives. Since then, we've grown into a powerful, organized coalition capable of real, local impact.

We work across issues, generations, and communities and seek to use our collective power to influence the actions of our local, State, and Federal elected officials. And we do it all with the conviction that Vermont must be a beacon of democratic strength and civic courage.
