Come together for our weekly Stand Out and also visit tables to learn about Indivisible North Quabbin’s working groups. The Indivisible No. Quabbin Steering Committee (see list of 10 at https://nqindivisible.blogspot.com) believes we must do more than Stand Out.
We need to Stand Together to build a strong community for all people in the North Quabbin region. The current working groups include:
· Communications
· Voting (e.g., voting rights and suppression, 2026 elections, etc.) – get postcards to send now. Help get candidates that believe in democracy for all into office in 2026. You can get stamped postcards to write and send. A pack of 10 is $12 – cash only.
· Community Outreach and Self-Sufficiency – starting to plan for workshops on food, home maintenance for the winter and other activities
· Rapid Response Network in region – working on immigration issues
· Education and Trainings (e.g., public forums/Teach-ins to educate + trainings for leadership development) – Planning for a public educational forum on Federal Budget cuts that will affect programs and people in the coming year. Also training on Affinity Groups is set for Sept. 13, 2025.
Tables will be set up in the park so you can talk with working group leaders before, during and after the Stand Out on July 26th. Help build a large regional network of people who are working together for democracy now.

Indivisible.org -- Indivisible No. Quabbin is part of a national network. All these are based on commitment to nonviolent action. For Indivisible North Quabbin along with other Indivisible groups, we expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values. We want participants to welcome new people as we build bridges to protect our democracy and fight back peacefully. This includes verbal confrontation with others. Some people may find some signs offensive in terms of language. Please keep this in mind as you make your signs. It is important to remember that we are working to build a diverse movement of people for the long haul.
