Who we are

Indivisible Cumberland County (ICC) is a group of volunteers in the Cumberland County area of Maine.

ICC exists to build a trustworthy and internally supportive community that meets regularly and enables its members to:

  • Resist the current administration's anti-democratic and unconstitutional actions.

  • Proactively defend civic institutions and vulnerable communities.

  • Keep pressure on elected representatives to fulfill their constitutional roles.

ICC matches people with people, actions, and groups to empower them through information and other means to participate in our democracy.

  • Give voice to our emotions in these difficult times.
