Explore troubleshooting and repair with volunteer Fixit coaches.
Fixit Clinics are free workshops where people bring broken stuff—from bikes to blenders to blazers—and volunteer Fixit Coaches share their time, tools, and know-how to help troubleshoot and (hopefully) repair items. These meet-ups build hands-on skills, confidence, community, and a culture of reuse and repair. The City of Boston Environment Department is partnering with Boston Building Resources to host one of these events.
A broken gadget, small appliance, computer, toy, textile good, or other item
Useful tools and parts, if you have them
A description of what’s wrong and anything you’ve tried to fix it—advance online research is helpful

These events are family-friendly and open to all. Interested in becoming a Fixit Coach yourself? Come lend a hand.
