Our Mission
Indivisible Chico’s mission is to mobilize and empower our community to resist injustice and protect democracy through non-partisan, civic engagement and community building.
By holding space for a unified, compassionate, collaborative movement, we build local strength in numbers to advocate for our representation and needs, as part of a larger, national movement to support.
Our Values
-
Promoting Civic Agency: We believe in a colorful, healthy, and inclusive democracy, where everyone has the power to help shape their community.
-
Protecting Democracy: We believe in and encourage the use of our local and national systems of checks and balances, demand government accountability, and call for the protection of our free press and rights to free speech.
-
Fostering Unity & Collaboration: We are better together. Our strength is rooted in our community and we will always amplify the good works of our allies, families, and neighbors, without agenda or political bias.
-
Promoting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: We believe that DEI is a good, positive, and vital piece of American culture. We are dedicated to preserving and cultivating a community where equity, justice, and dignity are everyday realities for ourselves and our neighbors. We work to ensure that every person is respected and has a voice.
-
Acting With Compassion: We are powered by compassion and respect for others. We are committed to helping those in need in our area and promoting our collective safety, dignity, and shared human rights.
-
Advocating for a Sustainable and Fair Future: We believe in building a future that is environmentally sustainable in line with our community’s values, economically local, and strong. This is possible when we advocate for protecting our local environment and resources, support local businesses fand fair trade, and show respect for all workers.
